Propeller -- need to calculate the area
Hello
I am doing a research on different propellers, including how do different propellers ( different mass/size, number of blades ) with different speeds change the rpm and the thrust. However to continue my research and to be able to graph it, I need to calculate the area of the propellers. The information I have is the diameter and the pitch of the propeller. And i can also can also calculate the rpm and the thrust ( however I think that is not important to calculate the area ) Does anyone know how can I calculate the area of a propeller ?
PS : I am using airplane propellers
Thank you
