    PROBLEMS ON TURBOFAN
    Problem #1
    The following data is given for a single spool turbofan engine:

    Flight speed = 660 MPH

    Ambient Conditions:
    Pressure = 14.5 Psia
    Temperature = 520oR

    Core engine flow = 100 lbm/sec


    By pass ratio = 1.5

    Fan Data :
    Diffuser efficiency = 0.97
    Pressure ratio = 2.0
    Fan efficiency = 0.9
    Cold air nozzle efficiency = 0.99
    Cold air nozzle is chocked and convergent.

    Core Engine Data :


    Diffuser efficiency = 0.985
    Compressor pressure ratio = 6.5
    Compressor efficiency = 0.86
    Pressure loss in combustion
    Chamber = 2.5%
    Burner efficiency = 0.99
    QR = 18500 B/lbm
    To4 = 2200oR
    Turbine efficiency = 0.9
    Mechanical efficiency = 0.9
    C-D nozzle is employed that is fully expanded with 1.5% stagnation pressure loss.

    Other Data :
    For cold air stream take γ = 1.4, R = 53.35 ft-lbf/lbmoR.
    For hot air stream take γ = 1.3, R = 53.35 ft-lbf/lbmoR.
    Find the following :
    (a) Power of turbine and compressor.
    (b) Power of fan.
    (c) Thrust of the engine.
    (d) TSFC.

    Problem #2

    Solve Problem # 1 while considering turbofan with aft-fan configuration with the following
    additional data: For Primary Turbine read ηT = 0.9 and ηM = 100%, and for Secondary
    Turbine read ηT = 0.88 and ηM = 100%.
    Problem # 3

    An aircraft powered by a front fan twin-spool turbofan engine is flying at 40000 feet with
    Mach 0.85. For the following known data, calculate thrust and specific fuel consumption
    of the engine:
    Total mass flow rate 350 lbm/s
    By pass ratio 2
    Fan compression ratio 2.5
    Fan efficiency 75%
    Intake pressure recovery (Po2/Poa) 0.98
    Compressor pressure ratio 12
    10% air is bled from compressor for cooling when compression ratio is 4, and isentropic
    efficiency is 90%.
    Further 5% of the remaining air is bled out from compressor to avoid rear stages stall
    when compression ratio is 8, and isentropic efficiency between two bleed points is 95%.
    Overall isentropic efficiency of the compressor 80%
    Turbine inlet temperature 2500 R
    Mechanical efficiency of primary turbine 97%
    Mechanical efficiency of secondary turbine 98%
    Adiabatic efficiencies of both the turbines 95%
    Stagnation pressure drop in combustion chamber 3%
    Burner efficiency 100%
    Heating value of the fuel 18500 B/lbm
    Isentropic efficiency of hot nozzle 85%
    Isentropic efficiency of cold nozzle 90%
    Both the nozzles are convergent
    Use γcold = 1.4, γhot = 1.3, and R=53.35 [ft-lbf/lbm R] for both the streams.

    Problem # 4

    An aircraft installed with turbofan engine (twin spool configuration) is flying at 25,000 ft at
    Mach 0.8

    c = 1.4

    h = 1.3
    Cp h = 0.297 BTU / lbm R Cp c = 0.24 BTU / lbm R
    TO4 = 2500 R
    By Pass Ratio = 2
    QR = 18500 BTU/lbm

    Efficiencies
    Diffuser = 0.85 Fan = 0.9 Compressor = 0.8
    Nozzle (hot) = 0.85 Nozzle (cold) = 0.8 Turbine (HP) = 0.9
    Turbine (LP) = 0.9 Burner = 0.9 Mechanical = 0.9

    expanded but not chocked, then for mixed flow:

    (a) Calculate TSFC for choked nozzle conditions (Two Nozzles)


    (b) Calculate TSFC for fully expanded nozzle conditions (Two Nozzles)
