William Froude's contribution to the momentum theory was published only as a discussion at the end of Rankine's paper. Froude summarized his contributions to propeller theory later in "On the Elementary Relation between Pitch, Slip, and Propulsion Efficiency, " National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, Technical Memorandum No. I 1920.
