Notes. The label “spec” indicates that spectroscopic masses are adopted from Martins et al. Predictions give the mass-loss rate, terminal velocities and β parameters for both method A (best-β solution) and B (hydrodynamic solution). The 11th column states whether or not the best-β solution fulfills the requirement that at the sonic point (see Sect. 2.6). For the hydrodynamic solutions a failure of this requirement implies that we do not find a solution at all. The last column provides the by Vink et al. (2001) when we use ν = 2.6   vesc in their mass-loss recipe. The hydrodynamic solution does not provide a β value, but rather the fit parameter γ. As to facilitate a comparison, we applied Eq. (16) to convert this γ into a β.
