What's the equation for the speed of a warp factor in multiples of c?
I know that for TOS-era, the speed in c is the cube of the warp factor.
I want to take a couple of TOS and TMP era ships from fan publications and convert them to TNG stats. Their warp speeds are listed in the older scale, showing ships with speeds like cruise warp 9, flank warp 12, emergency warp 18. So I'd like to be able to calculate the speed in c (TOS wf9.0 = 729c) then convert it back to modern warp (729c = TNG wf??).</font>
