Historically, the Burrill diagram has been used early in the propeller design process to estimate the inception of thrust loss due to cavitation. That data was based on a systematic series of propeller tested in a uniform inflow. This report develops an alternative set of curves based on five modern propeller designs to estimate thrust breakdown for both uniform inflow and for a range of non-uniformities.
