Propeller diameter calculator

In flight mechanics and aircraft engineering, the propeller diameter refers to the size or dimension of the circular area swept by the propeller blades during rotation. It is a critical parameter that directly influences the propeller’s performance and efficiency.

d=(v/n*j)

v: True airspeed (TAS) of the aircraft. or velocity

n: Rotational speed of the propeller in revolutions per minute (RPM). It represents how many times the propeller completes a full rotation in one minute.

j: Advance ratio
