Components of Jet Engines - Design Procedure

Design Procedure

  • Step-1 Determine nozzle throat diameter:

Mass flow parameter

Assume value of CD and calculate actual flow area required and on Area ratio calculate the exit area of nozzle.

  • Step-2 Determine velocity coefficient:

Using gas table using Critical Area ratio calculate Mach no and Pressure ratio

Calculate ideal exit velocity

Calculate actual exit velocity

Calculate velocity coefficient

  • Step 3 – Nozzle performance assessment:

Calculate Nozzle thrust coefficient

Calculate gross thrust

Famous quotes containing the word design:

    A good scientist is a person with original ideas. A good engineer is a person who makes a design that works with as few original ideas as possible. There are no prima donnas in engineering.
    Freeman Dyson (b. 1923)
