I'm new to flight gear and I was looking over JBsim's Aeromatic 0.7
aircraft configuration file generator. I generated the propellor
profile file and I was presented with this:-
<xml version="1.0"?>
<!-- Generated by Aero-Matic v 0.7
Inputs:
horsepower: 270
pitch: fixed
Outputs:
linear-blade-inches: 87.087886643321

I have an understanding of the IXX, diameter, numblades etc... What
I do not understand is what follows
C_THRUST 11 1
0.0 0.0936
0.1 0.0927
0.2 0.0918
0.3 0.0909
0.4 0.0828
0.5 0.0738
0.6 0.0630
0.7 0.0490
0.8 0.0360
0.9 0.0200
1.0 0.0040
C_POWER 11 1
0.0 0.0594
0.1 0.0585
0.2 0.0576
0.3 0.0558
0.4 0.0540
0.5 0.0522
0.6 0.0495
0.7 0.0432
0.8 0.0342
0.9 0.0225
1.0 0.0090
To me it looks like it might be the power profile of the engine, but I
would like a better clarfication about it if its possible.
Thanks in advance.
