The diffuser in a jet engine is designed to decrease the kinetic energy of the air entering the engine compressor without any work or heat interactions. Calculate the velocity at the exit of a diffuser when air at 100 kPa and 30°C enters it with a velocity of 358 m/s and the exit state is 200 kPa and 90°C. The specific heat of air at the average temperature of 60°C = 333 K is cp = 1.007 kJ/kg·K.
Air at 10 degree C and 80 kPa enters the diffuser of a jet engine steadily with a velocity of 200 m/s. The inlet area of the diffuser is 0.4 m^2.The air leaves the diffuser with a velocity that is very small compared with the inlet velocity. Determine the mass flow rate of the air and the temperature of the air leaving the diffuser. Air at 100 kPa and 280 K is compressed steadily to 600 kPa and 400 K....
A turboprop engine consists of a diffuser, compressor, combustor, turbine, and nozzle. The turbine drives a propeller as well as the compressor. Air enters the diffuser with a volumetric flow rate of 63.7 m3/s at 40 kPa, 240 K, and a velocity of 180 m/s, and decelerates essentially to zero velocity.
