Question 1
The gas turbine engine operates on a thermodynamic cycle in which air is continuously compressed, heated at constant pressure, and then expanded through a turbine and nozzle. Which cycle is this?
Correct Answer:
The Brayton (constant-pressure) cycle
Question 2
In a gas turbine, the four phases of the working cycle occurring continuously in different parts of the engine are:
Correct Answer:
Induction, compression, combustion, exhaust
Question 3
Gross thrust of a turbojet at a given operating point is calculated, ignoring fuel mass, as the mass flow multiplied by the jet velocity. Net thrust is obtained by:
Correct Answer:
Subtracting the ram drag (intake momentum drag) from the gross thrust
Question 4
Specific fuel consumption (SFC) of a turbojet/turbofan engine is most correctly defined as:
Correct Answer:
Fuel flow per unit of thrust per unit time
Question 5
A high-bypass turbofan develops most of its thrust from:
Correct Answer:
The fan (bypass) airflow
