6.31 : A double-spool turbofan engine; Fig. (6.66), is used to power an aircraft flying at speed of 250 m/s at an altitude of 11,000 m. As shown in the figure below, the low-pressure turbine drives the fan and low-pressure compressor, while the high-pressure turbine drives the high-pressure compressor. The engine has the following data: Bypass ratio = 8. Total ingested air flow rate = 180 kg/s. Overall pressure ratio OPR = 35. Fan pressure ratio = 1.6. Pressure ratio of high-pressure compressor is four times that of the low-pressure compressor; πHPC= 4 πLPC. Turbine inlet temperature = 1650 K. Fuel heating value = 43 MJ/kg. Assuming all processes are ideal and neglecting any pressure drop, it’s required to: Find the thrust, TSFC, and efficiencies of the engine Plot the velocity and temperature distribution over the engine cross section (rear end).

Question

6.31 : A double-spool turbofan engine; Fig. (6.66), is used to power an aircraft flying at speed of 250 m/s at an altitude of 11,000 m. As shown in the figure below, the low-pressure turbine drives the fan and low-pressure compressor, while the high-pressure turbine drives the high-pressure compressor. The engine has the following data:

  • Bypass ratio = 8.
  • Total ingested air flow rate = 180 kg/s.
  • Overall pressure ratio OPR = 35.
  • Fan pressure ratio = 1.6.
  • Pressure ratio of high-pressure compressor is four times that of the low-pressure compressor; πHPC= 4 πLPC.
  • Turbine inlet temperature = 1650 K.
  • Fuel heating value = 43 MJ/kg.

Assuming all processes are ideal and neglecting any pressure drop, it’s required to:

  1. Find the thrust, TSFC, and efficiencies of the engine
  2. Plot the velocity and temperature distribution over the engine cross section

(rear end).
