Ah Hell Chuck, you missed the point of the question here. The thrust produced will remain the same in both instances regardless of the engine horsepower. If indeed the 100hp engine is turning the prop at 2300 rpm and requires the full 100 hp to do so, the 150 hp engine is not producing full power to turn the prop. A 1000 hp engine turning the same prop at the same rpm will still produce the exact same thrust. Ah hell Bob,I guess I don't see what point I missed :-) Seems we're both saying the same thing. Given it's the same prop on both engines and the prop is turning 2300 rpm it will always produce the same thrust at that rpm regardless .However if you start to open the throttle the 1000 hp engine it will turn faster and produce more thrust because it has the power to do so...But the prop will be spinning faster than 2300 . Maybe I'm not understanding the question. See ya Chuck (time for Beany) S |

Where do you get insufficient data? Question does not indicate a different prop turning on the two engines. "A" prop indicates the same prop used on two different hp engines turning at the exact same RPM with no indicated differences. No, the query was ambiguous both semantically and in its technical context. Evidence of the query's ambiguity is right in this thread, where reasonable people took its meaning differently. Orval was correct, "Insufficient data." David O -- +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Where the hell is the poster of the original question? Has he left town after all this scientific and not so scientific commotion? If not... Maybe, he will rephrase his question so 'we' can settle this once and for all and move on to solving the rest of the world's less pressing problems. g Barnyard BOb - with a mouse in his pocket |

Answering the question directly as written the answer is both would produce exactly the same thrust. If the question however asked which was capable of producing more thrust, the answer changes.

To quote Bill Clinton, "It depends on what your definition of what thrust
is"? Damn, I've never read so much BS for a simple question. |

David O -- http://www.AriplaneZone.com ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ WoW.... Coming from you, this is quite a compliment. Thank you. FWIW.... I considered "insufficient data" immediately, but that seemed a bit too cut and dried at the time for my mental picture of "Mark"... considering the way he framed his question.. It is my fondest hope that the various replies have enriched him much more than he might have expected. g Barnyard BOb -- Merry Christmas to all |

Ahh so he says as the bulb lights and the dawn arises ...Now I see :-) Chuck (I'm sliding on the ice) S I have been burned way too many times taking tests where I read more into the question that was written. I gave an answer based on just that, nothing more, nothing less. It does however go against my nature and I always want to dig into the additional factors as one poster mentioned, adjustable pitch, etc. Bob Reed www.kisbuild.r-a-reed-assoc.com (KIS Builders Site) KIS Cruiser in progress...Slow but steady progress....
