“…The following series of equations can be used to obtain the exit mass flow rate, Equation (23), which is then simply multiplied by the exit velocity to obtain the gross thrust of the engine, Equation (24). The first step is to obtain an estimate of the Mach number, Equation (20). Then the static temperature can be obtained, Equation (21), which allows for the calculation of the local speed of sound, Equation (22).…”
