INDIAN INSTITUTE OF SPACE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY THIRUVANANTHAPURAM 695 547 B.Tech Quiz - I! Examination — Mar 2014 AE323 — Air Breathing Propulsion ‘Time: 1 Hour Date: 26/03/2014 Max. Marks: 25 (No Queries shall be attended during the examination, If you feel shortage of data, kindly assume and highlight the same in your answer sheet) ; Work and Heat transfer across the boundary is zero ——— Inviscid flow Figure 1 A1. Identify the component of a turbojet engine shown i Fig. 1 which is operating at subsonic condition, Describe the function of the component and its isentropic efficiency, (2 Marks) ~2An aircraft is fying at an altitude where the ambient static pressure is p,=25 kPa and the flight Mach number is 0.8. The stagnation pressure at the inlet of the compressor is 28 KPa, Assuming the inlet is . Adiabatic and y = 1.4, Estimate the non-dimensional entropy rise caused by the inlet? (2 Marks) _3(The change in the enthalpy in a nozzle during the isentropic expansion of gases from an upstream ‘stagnation pressure to the exit static pressure is 190960 J/kg, The efficiency of the nozzle is 0.95 Estimate the actual exit velocity? (2 Marks) 4 Why polytropic efficiency is more important than the overall efficiency of both compressors and turbines? In an air breathing engine, the overall stagnation pressure ratio is 27. It consists of 3 stages and Polytropic efficiency of each stage is same and it is 0.92. The stagnation pressure ratio across each staze is also same. The inlet stagnation temperature of the compressor is 350 K. Estimate the overall efficiency of the compressor and stage stagnation pressure ratio if y = 1.35. (4 Marks) 5. A turboprop is used to power an aircraft at 7000 fi. It flies at Mach 0.45 and the compressor pressure ratio is 5.4..The air flow rate is 8.62 kg/s. The combustor exit stagnation temperature is 1266 K and the Bee Se calorific value of the fuel is 42800 ki/kg. The work coefficient of the propeller is 0.85. The compressor, bumer,turbine, shaft, converging primary nozzle, and propeller have efficiencies of 90, 95, 87, 99.6, 97 and 82 percent respectively, The diffuser and burner have total pressure ratios of 0.93 respectivel nozzle ropeller and TSFC of the entire engine provid pressure.) Free stream properties are pa 8 bar, T = 27428 K, ya = 1.4, Ye = 1.33, Yy = 1.36, Cpeora = 1004 J/kgK, Cpnor = 1152 J/kgK (15 Marks) 5 Yat sy the thrust produced by jet
