Thanks to Bernie and Bill for the equations - I have not attempt to verify the equations, but they appear to be accurate and further more if you put zero airspeed in the moving prop equation, you get the same calculated values as the static prop - so appears they are in agreement and accurate. You may change any value shown in color Blue - the rest of the spreadsheet is protected so folks don't accidentally erase an equation in a cell by putting a number in it. But, you can view the equations in each cell, so if someone wants to duplicate it unprotected - have at it.

Hi folks,

Attached is a spreadsheet for calculation of propeller tip speed both = static

further more if you put zero airspeed in the moving prop equation, you = get
the same calculated values as the static prop - so appears they are = in

You may change any value shown in color Blue - the rest of the = spreadsheet

putting a number in it.  But, you can view the equations in each = cell, so if
someone wants to duplicate it unprotected - have at it.

Enjoy
