The EM nonlinearity of the 2000–2001 Podkletnov superconductor impulse experiments was predicted (in hindsight) by Maker and the author in 2002 through the derivation of an impulse velocity equation, which was built on previously work by Maker. This paper shows that this impulse velocity equation can be written in terms of the time average nonlinear impulse thrust equation derived in a 2006 paper by the author to correlate the reported inductive capacitor experiments. The time averaged thrust for the 2000–2001 Podkletnov superconductor impulse experiments and a nonlinearity factor is then calculated. These indicate that the thrust on the superconductor could have been in the Newton range, which is much higher than the milli‐Newtons currently being seen in the inductive capacitor experiments.
