Air at 26 kPa, 230 K, and 220 rn/s enters a turbojet engine in flight. The air mass flow rate is 25 kg/s. The compressor pressure ratio is 11, the turbine inlet temperature is 1400 K, and air exits the nozzle 26 kPa. The diffuser and the nozzle processes are isentropic, the compressor and turbine have isentropic efficiencies of 85% and 90%, respectively. There is no pressure drop for flow through the combustor. Kinetic energy is negligible everywhere except at the diffuser inlet and the nozzle exit. On the basis of air-standard analysis, determine: (a)the pressures and temperatures at each state, (b)the rate of heat addition to the air passing through the combustor, (c) the velocity at the nozzle exit.

Explanation:  

This is a little lengthy and tricky, but nevertheless i would give a step by step analysis to make this as simple as possible.  

(a). here we are asked to determine the Temperature and Pressure.  

Given that the properties of Air;  

ha = 230.02 KJ/Kg  

Ta = 230 K  

Pra = 0.5477  

From the energy balance equation for a diffuser;  

ha + Va²/2 = h₁ + V₁²/2  

h₁ = ha + Va²/2 (where V₁²/2 = 0)  

h₁ = 230.02 + 220²/2 ˣ 1/10³  

h₁ = 254.22 KJ/Kg  

⇒ now we obtain the properties of air at h₁ = 254.22 KJ/Kg  

from this we have;  

Pr₁ = 0.7329 + (0.8405 - 0.7329)[(254.22 - 250.05) / (260.09 - 250.05)]  

Pr₁ = 0.77759  

therefore T₁ = 254.15K  

P₁ = (Pr₁/Pra)Pa  

= 0.77759/0.5477 ˣ 26  

P₁ = 36.91 kPa  

now we calculate Pr₂  

Pr₂ = Pr₁ (P₂/P₁) = 0.77759 ˣ 11 = 8.55349  

⇒ now we obtain properties of air at  

Pr₂ = 8.55349 and h₂ = 505.387 KJ/Kg  

calculating the enthalpy of air at state 2  

ηc = h₁ - h₂ / h₁ - h₂  

0.85 = 254.22 - 505.387 / 254.22 - h₂  

h₂ = 549.71 KJ/Kg  

to obtain the properties of air at h₂ = 549.71 KJ/Kg  

T₂ = 545.15 K

⇒ to calculate the pressure of air at state 2

P₂/P₁ = 11

P₂ = 11 ˣ 36.913  

p₂ = 406.043 kPa

but pressure of air at state 3 is the same,

i.e. P₂ = P₃ = 406.043 kPa

P₃ = 406.043 kPa

To obtain the properties of air at  

T₃ = 1400 K, h₃ = 1515.42 kJ/Kg and Pr = 450.5

for cases of turbojet engine,

we have that work output from turbine = work input to the compressor

Wt = Wr

(h₃ - h₄) = (h₂ - h₁)

h₄ = h₃ - h₂ + h₁  

= 1515.42 - 549.71 + 254.22

h₄ = 1219.93 kJ/Kg

properties of air at h₄ = 1219.93 kJ/Kg

T₄ = 1140 + (1160 - 1140) [(1219.93 - 1207.57) / (1230.92 - 1207.57)]

T₄ = 1150.58 K

Pr₄ = 193.1 + (207.2 - 193.1) [(1219.93 - 1207.57) / (1230.92 - 1207.57)]

Pr₄ = 200.5636

Calculating the ideal enthalpy of the air at state 4;

Лr = h₃ - h₄ / h₃ - h₄*

0.9 = 1515.42 - 1219.93 / 1515.42 - h₄  

h₄* = 1187.09 kJ/Kg

now to obtain the properties of air at h₄⁻ = 1187.09 kJ/Kg

P₄* = 179.7 + (193.1 - 179.7) [(1187.09 -1184.28) / (1207.57 - 1184.28)]

P₄* = 181.316

P₄ = (Pr₄/Pr₃)P₃       i.e. 3-4 isentropic process

P₄ = 181.316/450.5 * 406.043

P₄ = 163.42 kPa

For the 4-5 process;

Pr₅ = (P₅/P₄)Pr₄

Pr₅ = 26/163.42 * 200.56 = 31.9095

to obtain the properties of air at Pr₅ = 31.9095

h₅= 724.04 + (734.82 - 724.04) [(31.9095 - 3038) / (32.02 - 30.38)]

h₅ = 734.09 KJ/Kg

T₅ = 710 + (720 - 710) [(31.9095 - 3038) / (32.02 - 30.38)]

T₅ = 719.32 K

(b) Now we are asked to calculate the rate of heat addition to the air passing through the combustor;

QH = m(h₃-h₂)

QH = 25(1515.42 - 549.71)

QH = 24142.75 kW

(c). To calculate the velocity at the nozzle exit;

we apply steady energy equation of a flow to nozzle

h₄ + V₄²/2 = h₅ + V₅²/2

h₄  + 0  = h₅₅ + V₅²/2

1219.9 ˣ 10³ = 734.09 ˣ 10³ + V₅²/2

therefore, V₅ = 985.74 m/s
