Factor is in fact a decreasing function of ENGINES. It drops off in a moderately but clearly convex way with increasing values of ENGINES. You need a table of the form ENGINES(1) = 1 ENGINES(2) = . . . . . . ENGINES(n) = . . . There is a recent SHARE presentation that contains such a table.

Some experimentation for plausible ranges of FACTOR values strongly suggests that this computation should be done with an appropriate mean in each specific context. My suggestion of a table was thus a more valuable one than I realized when I made it. John Gilmore, Ashland, MA 01721 - USA
