- Summary:
- If an air propeller is to drive the airplane at its maximum flying speed, it must run at the number of revolutions in which the engine develops its maximum power. It is at present quite impossible to calculate mathematically these revolutions in advance, and model experiments also will hardly meet the accuracy at present required, especially in new construction, as all variable elements cannot be taken into consideration in these experiments.
