- 3. • Turbojets are the oldest kind of general-purpose jet engines. • Turbojets are rotary engines that extracts energy from a flow of combustion gas. • They produce thrust by increasing the velocity of the air flowing through the engine and operate on Newton’s third law of motion " For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction”.
- 5. Air intake • Air intake aims at bringing large amounts of surrounding air into the engine. • A tube-shaped inlet, like one you would see on an airliner usually of cylindrical or conical design. • Inlets come in many shapes and sizes depending on the aircraft.
- 6. The compressor rotates at very high speed, adding energy to the airflow and at the same time squeezing it into a smaller space. Compressing the air increases its pressure and temperature. The compressor is driven by the turbine. Compressors used in turbojet engines are mainly classified as: Axial Flow Compressors. Centrifugal Compressors.
- 7. Axial compressors are rotating, airfoil based compressors in which the working fluid principally flows parallel to the axis of rotation. Axial compressors consist of a shaft that drives a central drum which has a number of annular airfoil rows attached. These rotate between a similar number of stationary airfoil rows attached to a stationary tubular casing. A pair of rotating and stationary airfoils is called a stage. The cross-sectional area between rotor drum and casing is reduced in the flow direction to maintain axial velocity as the fluid is compressed.
- 8. Centrifugal compressors are rotating, airfoil based compressors in which the working fluid principally flows perpendicular to the axis of rotation. Centrifugal compressors consist of a shaft that drives a impeller which has a number of curved blades. The impeller rotates in a casing which is designed to convert the kinetic energy of the fluid into pressure energy before leaving the compressor.
- 9. In a turbojet the air and fuel mixture passes unconfined through the combustion chamber. As the mixture burns its temperature increases dramatically. The combustion chamber is usually in the form of cans, which comprise the fuel injector and flame holder.
- 10. Hot gases leaving the combustor are allowed to expand through the turbine. Turbines are usually made up of high temperature metals such as inconel. The turbine's rotational energy is used primarily to drive the compressor. and other accessories, like fuel, oil, and hydraulic pumps. In a turbojet almost two-thirds of all the power generated by burning fuel is used by the compressor to compress the air for the engine.
- 11. • After the turbine, the gases are allowed to expand through the exhaust nozzle to atmospheric pressure, producing a high velocity jet in the exhaust plume. • In a convergent nozzle, the ducting narrows progressively to a throat.
- 12. An afterburner or "reheat jet-pipe" is a device added to the rear of the jet engine. It provides a means of spraying fuel directly into the hot exhaust, where it ignites and boosts available thrust significantly; a drawback is its very high fuel consumption rate..
- 13. The thrust reverser is, essentially, a pair of clamshell doors mounted at the rear of the engine which, when deployed, divert thrust normal to the jet engine flow to help slow an aircraft upon landing. They are often used in conjunction with spoilers. The accidental deployment of a thrust reverser during flight is a dangerous event that can lead to loss of control and destruction of the aircraft.
- 14. Air is drawn into the rotating compressor via the intake and is compressed to a higher pressure before entering the combustion chamber. Fuel is mixed with the compressed air and ignited by a flame in the eddy of a flame holder. Hot combustion products leaving the combustor expand through the turbine where power is extracted to drive the compressor. The gas stream exiting the turbine expands to ambient pressure via the propelling nozzle, producing a high velocity jet in the exhaust plume.
- 16. Thermodynamics of a jet engine are modeled approximately by a Brayton Cycle. Ideal Brayton cycle comprise of the following Thermodynamics Processes: Isentropic Compression Process. Isobaric Heat Addition Process. Isentropic Expansion Process. Isobaric Heat Rejection Process.
- 17. Merits of Turbojet Engines: Very high power-to-weight ratio. Compact than most reciprocating engines of the same power rating. Fewer moving parts than reciprocating engines. Low operating pressures. High operation speeds. Low lubricating oil cost and consumption. Demerits of Turbojet Engines: Cost Longer startup than reciprocating engines Less responsive to changes in power demand compared to reciprocating engines. 7 CYLINDER BMW 801 AIRCRAFT ENGINE
- 18. THE MESSERSCHMITT Me 262 : The Messerschmitt Me 262 was the world's first operational jet-powered fighter aircraft. In combat, when properly flown, it proved to be essentially untouchable, able to outrun its Allied counterparts by as much as 100 mph.
- 19. CONCORDE:- One of the most recent uses of turbojet engines was the Olympus 593 on Concorde. Concorde used turbojet engines because it turns out that the small cross-section and high exhaust speed is ideal for operation at Mach 2.
- 20. THRUST 2: In 1983 the car reached a top speed of 650.88 mph (1,047.49 km/h) and broke the record at 633.468 mph (1,019.468 km/h). It is powered by a single Rolls-Royce Avon jet engine sourced from an English Electric Lightning.
