    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust

    Pound (force) – Earth's gravitational pull on a one-pound mass "Pound of thrust": thrust (force) required to accelerate one pound at one g; Stream thrust averaging – Process to convert 3D flow into 1D; Thrust-to-weight ratio – Dimensionless ratio of thrust to weight of a jet or propeller engine

  5. Rolls-Royce BR700 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolls-Royce_BR700

    The engine has a maximum thrust of 16,900 lbf (75.2 kN). [9] The 50 in (130 cm) fan with 24 swept blades is 2 in (5.1 cm) larger than the BR710. The HP axial compressor benefits from three-dimensional aerodynamics for greater efficiency and has 10 stages including five blisks to reduce weight.

  6. Horsepower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horsepower

    Boiler horsepower is a boiler's capacity to deliver steam to a steam engine and is not the same unit of power as the 550 ft lb/s definition. One boiler horsepower is equal to the thermal energy rate required to evaporate 34.5 pounds (15.6 kg) of fresh water at 212 °F (100 °C) in one hour.

  7. Thrust-specific fuel consumption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust-specific_fuel...

    TSFC or SFC for thrust engines (e.g. turbojets, turbofans, ramjets, rockets, etc.) is the mass of fuel needed to provide the net thrust for a given period e.g. lb/(h·lbf) (pounds of fuel per hour-pound of thrust) or g/(s·kN) (grams of fuel per second-kilonewton). Mass of fuel is used, rather than volume (gallons or litres) for the fuel ...
