108 Force<br />

12–2 Performance and Weights<br />

The force generation requires a fuel flow that is calculated from an input thrust-specific fuel consumption<br />

(sfc): ˙w = A(sfc). Units of sfc are pound/hour/pound, or kilogram/hour/Newton.<br />

The force component weight is identified as either engine-system or propeller/fan installation<br />

weight, both of the propulsion group. The force component weight is calculated from specific weight<br />

and the design maximum force Fmax, plus a fixed increment: W = SFmax +ΔW .
