Thanks gents, that is the explanation I was looking for. Probably explains why we consider thrust specific fuel consumption for jet engines and brake SFC for piston-props.

Agaricus bisporus,
The only on-line reference to it that I can find is here, pg5, bottom paragraph.

I vaguely remember reference to thrust- and power-producers from my degree, but that was a while ago.
