Design of Jet Engines
It was made by analyzing common jet engines and figuring out the most suitable design for this project. The design consists of a radial compressor, an annular combustion chamber and…
Combustion chamber
In the combustion chamber is where the combustion takes place. Here, heat is added to the jet engine in the Brayton Cycle. Compressed air flows from the compressor into the…
Centrifugal Compressor
Centrifugal compressors are often used in small turbines both in aircraft and industrial uses. One reason is that, compared to axial flow compressors, they offer higher pressure ratios per stage.…
Compressors and Turbines
There are mainly two types of compressors and turbines used in jet engines and power turbines: axial and radial/centrifugal. Both are of the continuous flow variety, where a rotating mechanical…
Reaction engines
In order to provide thrust all aircraft engines work by imparting rearward momentum to one or more streams of gas, this gas is the reaction mass and such engines are…
Development of an Aircraft Routing System for an Air Taxi Operator
Introduction Due to increasing congestion of the road network and the major airports, the established modes of transport like car and scheduled air travel are having difficulty to fulfil the…
Collision Probabilities, Aircraft Separation and Airways Safety
Introduction The steady growth of air traffic at a rate of 3-7% per year over several decades has placed increasing demands on capacity that must be met with undiminished safety…
Air Traffic Control Decision Support for Integrated Community Noise Management
Introduction The noise resulting from flight operations at major airports is a continuing source of annoyance in nearby residential communities. This being recognized by the industry, new aircraft generations continue…
Multi-Dimensional Calibration of Impact Models
Introduction As computational capabilities continue to improve and the costs associated with test programs continue to increase, certification of future rotorcraft will rely more on computational tools along with strategic…
Aircraft Gas-Turbine Engine’s Control Based on the Fuel Injection Control
Introduction For a gas-turbine engine, particularly for a jet engine, the automatic control is one of the most important aspects, in order to assure to it, as aircraft’s main part,…
