To solve this problem, we will use the given data and apply the principles of thermodynamics and fluid mechanics. Let's calculate each part step by step.---### **Given Data:**- Flight Mach number
- Altitude:
- Ambient pressure:
- Ambient temperature:
- Effective exhaust velocity:
- Inlet cross-sectional area:
- Fuel-to-air ratio:
**Constants:**- Specific gas constant for air:
- Ratio of specific heats for air:
---### **(a) Air mass flow rate (
):**The air mass flow rate is calculated using the continuity equation:
where:
#### Step 1: Calculate speed of sound (
):
#### Step 2: Calculate flight velocity (
):
#### Step 3: Calculate air density (
):
#### Step 4: Calculate air mass flow rate (
):
So, the air mass flow rate is:
---### **(b) Fuel mass flow rate (
):**The fuel mass flow rate is related to the air mass flow rate by the fuel-to-air ratio:
Rearranging for
:
So, the fuel mass flow rate is:
---### **(c) Exhaust gas mass flow rate (
):**The exhaust gas mass flow rate is the sum of the air mass flow rate and the fuel mass flow rate:
So, the exhaust gas mass flow rate is:
---### **(d) Gross thrust (
):**Gross thrust is given by:
Substitute the values:
So, the gross thrust is:
---### **(e) Net thrust (
):**Net thrust accounts for the momentum of incoming air:
Substitute the values:
So, the net thrust is:
---### **(f) Thrust power (
):**Thrust power is the product of net thrust and flight velocity:
Substitute the values:
So, the thrust power is:
---### **(g) Propulsive efficiency (
):**Propulsive efficiency is given by:
Substitute the values:
So, the propulsive efficiency is:
---### **(h) Thermal efficiency (
):**Thermal efficiency is given by:
Here,
is the heat released per unit mass of fuel. Since
is not provided in the problem, we cannot calculate
without additional information.---### **(i) Specific fuel consumption (
):**Specific fuel consumption is given by:
Substitute the values:
So, the specific fuel consumption is:
---### **(j) Overall efficiency (
):**Overall efficiency is the product of propulsive efficiency and thermal efficiency:
Since
is not calculated due to missing
,
cannot be determined without additional information.--- This concludes the solution.
