Gross Thrust Coefficient Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Gross Thrust Coefficient = Gross Thrust/Ideal Gross Thrust
C_Tg = T_G/F_i
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Gross Thrust Coefficient - Gross Thrust Coefficient is the ratio of actual gross thrust to the ideal gross thrust.
Gross Thrust - (Measured in Newton) - Gross Thrust is the total thrust of a jet engine without deduction of the drag caused by the momentum of the incoming air.
Ideal Gross Thrust - (Measured in Newton) - Ideal Gross Thrust is thrust without losses.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Gross Thrust: 868 Newton --> 868 Newton No Conversion Required
Ideal Gross Thrust: 1060 Newton --> 1060 Newton No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

C_Tg = T_G/F_i --> 868/1060

Evaluating ... ...

C_Tg = 0.818867924528302

What is thrust?

Thrust is a reaction force, When a system expels or accelerates mass in one direction, the accelerated mass will cause a force of equal magnitude but in opposite direction, to be applied to that system. The force applied on a surface in a direction perpendicular to the surface is also called thrust.

How to Calculate Gross Thrust Coefficient?

Gross Thrust Coefficient calculator uses Gross Thrust Coefficient = Gross Thrust/Ideal Gross Thrust to calculate the Gross Thrust Coefficient, Gross Thrust Coefficient is a dimensionless measure of the efficiency of an aircraft engine or rocket, calculated as the ratio of gross thrust to ideal gross thrust, providing a comparative assessment of an engine's performance under varying conditions. Gross Thrust Coefficient is denoted by C_Tg symbol.

How to calculate Gross Thrust Coefficient using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Gross Thrust Coefficient, enter Gross Thrust (T_G) & Ideal Gross Thrust (F_i) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Gross Thrust Coefficient calculation can be explained with given input values -> 7 = 868/ideal_gross_thrust.

FAQ

What is Gross Thrust Coefficient?

Gross Thrust Coefficient is a dimensionless measure of the efficiency of an aircraft engine or rocket, calculated as the ratio of gross thrust to ideal gross thrust, providing a comparative assessment of an engine's performance under varying conditions and is represented as C_Tg = T_G/F_i or Gross Thrust Coefficient = Gross Thrust/Ideal Gross Thrust. Gross Thrust is the total thrust of a jet engine without deduction of the drag caused by the momentum of the incoming air & Ideal Gross Thrust is thrust without losses.
