X section is 1/15 diameter ( length of bar), yes the spreadsheet does all the calc's in mm, told me to make a bar 1350x90mm.

The spreadsheet itself is copywrite so if you don't want to spend the $125.00 you'll have to decipher the formulae yourself

The 5 and 3 in that formulae are power of. It did not copy through properly when I posted it.

I got the program for the prop design and aircraft performance calculations, this wood bar dyno is more of a curio as I needed a load on the engine for when I start it so thought I may as well have a load that gives a calculated result.

Can we assume that diameter is measured in mm?
