Thrust power Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Thrust Power = Mass Flow Rate*Flight Speed*(Exit Velocity-Flight Speed)
T_P = m_a*V*(V_e-V)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Thrust Power - (Measured in Watt) - Thrust Power refers to the power generated by a propulsion system to produce thrust and propel an object forward.
Mass Flow Rate - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - Mass Flow Rate represents the amount of mass passing through a system per unit of time.
Flight Speed - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Flight Speed refers to the velocity at which an aircraft moves through the air.
Exit Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Exit Velocity refers to the speed at which gases expand at the exit of nozzle of a engine.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Mass Flow Rate: 3.5 Kilogram per Second --> 3.5 Kilogram per Second No Conversion Required
Flight Speed: 111 Meter per Second --> 111 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Exit Velocity: 248 Meter per Second --> 248 Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T_P = m_a*V*(V_e-V) --> 3.5*111*(248-111)

Evaluating ... ...

T_P = 53224.5

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

53224.5 Watt -->53.2245 Kilowatt (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

53.2245 Kilowatt <-- Thrust Power

What is thrust power?

The thrust developed by the engine overcomes the drag on the aircraft and in doing so it develops power, called the thrust power.

How to Calculate Thrust power?

Thrust power calculator uses Thrust Power = Mass Flow Rate*Flight Speed*(Exit Velocity-Flight Speed) to calculate the Thrust Power, Thrust Power is a measure of the energy expended by an aircraft or vehicle to generate movement, calculated by multiplying the mass flow rate and flight speed, and then subtracting the exit velocity from the flight speed to determine the total power output. Thrust Power is denoted by T_P symbol.

How to calculate Thrust power using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Thrust power, enter Mass Flow Rate (m_a), Flight Speed (V) & Exit Velocity (V_e) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Thrust power calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.053224 = 3.5*111*(248-111).

FAQ

What is Thrust power?

Thrust Power is a measure of the energy expended by an aircraft or vehicle to generate movement, calculated by multiplying the mass flow rate and flight speed, and then subtracting the exit velocity from the flight speed to determine the total power output and is represented as T_P = m_a*V*(V_e-V) or Thrust Power = Mass Flow Rate*Flight Speed*(Exit Velocity-Flight Speed). Mass Flow Rate represents the amount of mass passing through a system per unit of time, Flight Speed refers to the velocity at which an aircraft moves through the air & Exit Velocity refers to the speed at which gases expand at the exit of nozzle of a engine.

How to calculate Thrust power?

Thrust Power is a measure of the energy expended by an aircraft or vehicle to generate movement, calculated by multiplying the mass flow rate and flight speed, and then subtracting the exit velocity from the flight speed to determine the total power output is calculated using Thrust Power = Mass Flow Rate*Flight Speed*(Exit Velocity-Flight Speed). To calculate Thrust power, you need Mass Flow Rate (m_a), Flight Speed (V) & Exit Velocity (V_e). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Mass Flow Rate, Flight Speed & Exit Velocity and hit the calculate button.
