Question
Air enters the diffuser of a turbojet engine with a
mass flow rate of 65 lb/s at 9 lbf/in2, 420°R, and
a velocity of 750 ft/s. The pressure ratio for the
compressor is 12, and its isentropic efficiency is
88%. Air enters the turbine at 2600°R with the
same pressure as at the exit of the compressor.
Air exits the nozzle at 9 lbf/in2. The diffuser
operates isentropically and the nozzle and
turbine have isentropic efficiencies of 92% and
90%, respectively. Use an air-standard analysis.
(a) the rate of heat addition, in Btu/h.
(b) the pressure at the turbine exit, in lbf/in.2 and
psi
(c) the compressor power input, in Btu/h.
d) the velocity at the nozzle exit, in ft/s.
