Ideal Thrust in Performance Parameters Formulas

Ideal Thrust is the thrust produced by an engine when nozzle exit pressure is same as ambient pressure or nozzle is perfectly expanded. And is denoted by T_ideal. Ideal Thrust is usually measured using the Newton for Force. Note that the value of Ideal Thrust is always positive.

FAQ

What is the Ideal Thrust?

Ideal Thrust is the thrust produced by an engine when nozzle exit pressure is same as ambient pressure or nozzle is perfectly expanded. Ideal Thrust is usually measured using the Newton for Force. Note that the value of Ideal Thrust is always positive.

Can the Ideal Thrust be negative?

No, the Ideal Thrust, measured in Force cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure Ideal Thrust?

Ideal Thrust is usually measured using the Newton[N] for Force. Exanewton[N], Meganewton[N], Kilonewton[N] are the few other units in which Ideal Thrust can be measured.
