Question: A simple turbojet engine ( zero bypass, no afterburner ) is designed for flight at 1 0 km above sea level and Mach 0 .
A simple turbojet engine zero bypass, no afterburner is designed for flight at km above sea level and Mach The compressor pressure ratio is and the maximum allowable engine temperature is K You may assume standard air properties throughout, typical values of component efficiencies and a fuel heating value of kJkg The target thrust is N at the stated conditions.
a Calculate and state the required mass flow rate ie "size" the engine
b Find the Thrust Specific Fuel Consumption under these conditions and state the value as X hr
c Examine the nozzle exit conditions. Is the nozzle properly matched, overexpanded or underexpanded?
d Run a parametric analysis showing the effect of changing the compressor pressure ratio and the peak temperature by from the design values. Show a contour plot of the effect of these changes with Thrust along the x axis and TSFC on the yaxis. Add turbine exit temperature as an overlaid contour parameter Hint: this is one of those colorful plots discussed in class
e Comment briefly on the results from step d What design changes seem to result in performance improvement? The same core engine specifications will now be used to develop a twoshaft turbofan that
will also provide N thrust at km and Mach Use typical values for component efficiencies, but force the fan, which will have a pressure ratio of to have an isentropic efficiency of
f Seek the optimum bypass ratio that will give best fuel consumption.
g State your final results for mass flow rates, bypass ratio, and TSFC all at the stated flight conditions.
h Run both engines baseline turbojet and turbofan at sea level, static conditions, and state the thrusts generated answers Comment on any anomalous results.
