Propulsive efficiency
text:
In aerospace engineering, concerning aircraft, rocket and spacecraft design, overall propulsion system efficiency η is the efficiency with which the energy contained in a vehicle's fuel is converted into kinetic energy of the vehicle, to accelerate it, or to replace losses due to aerodynamic drag or gravity. Mathematically, it is represented as η = η c η p, where η c is the cycle efficiency and η p is the propulsive efficiency. The cycle efficiency is expressed as the percentage of the heat ener
