Outflow coefficient γ is defined for decreased energy transmission:

 

The cu-difference is called slip velocity.

 

The smaller the outflow coefficient, the higher is the deviation of flow compared to the direction given by blade.

 

Wiesner has developed an empirical equation for the estimation of outflow coefficient:

with correction values

 

Circumferential component of blade congruent flow can be calculated as follows:
