Question: ( 1 0 pts . ) A turbofan engine with a bypass ratio = 5 operates with a compressor pressure ratio of 3 0 and

(10 pts.) A turbofan engine with a bypass ratio =5 operates with a compressor pressure ratio of 30 and a combustor exit temperature of 1700K. Determine the specific thrust, specific fuel consumption, and the overall efficiency for a fan pressure ratio of f=1.5 with the efficiency f=0.85. The flight Mach number is M=0.85 at an altitude of 40,000ft(12,200m) where the ambient pressure and temperature are 18.75 kPa and 216.7K, respectively. The fuel heating value is hPR=45,000kJkg, and the component efficiencies listed below. Assume =1.4 for the inlet, fan, and compressor, and =1.33 for the combustor, turbine, and nozzle. Take the gas everywhere to have a constant molecular weight of 29kgkmol, and use the approximation mtcpt=mccpc to account for the fuel flow.
Component efficiencies: Diffuser (core and fan),d=0.97; compressor, c=0.85; burner, b=0.96; turbine, t=0.90; and nozzle (core and fan)n=0.98.
How do the specific thrust, specific fuel consumption, and the overall efficiency change if the bypass ratio is increased to =10?
