A study of flow and initial stage of water condensation in the exhaust jet of the aircraft turbofan engine
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper describes the results of numerical study of flow in the exhaust jet of turbofan engine CFM 56-3. Influence of computational domain decomposition, grid refinement and flow model on the jet flow field is discussed. Special attention is payed to simulation of nucleation and condensation processes in the exhaust jet. Growth of water clusters in the jet and cluster distribution in size are obtained.

Turbofan Engine Performance under Reliability Measures Approach
In this paper, the authors investigated the various factors, which can affect the performance of a turbofan engine. For this, the various subunits of a turbofan engine like inlet duct, compressor, combustion chamber, liner, turbine, exhaust nozzle etc. are investigated to find its various reliability characteristics through Markov process and supplementary variable technique (SVT). The main adv...

1EPA 2Printed on paper that contains at least 30 percent postconsumer fiber. 1 This fact sheet focuses on contrails produced by aircraft engine exhaust. However, the term " contrail " is also used to refer to the short trails sometimes briefly appearing over aircraft wings or engine propellers, especially under mild, humid conditions. These contrails consist entirely of atmospheric water that c...
متن کاملLDA Experimental Data of Three-Poster Jet Impingement System
During its near-ground hovering phase a Short Take-Off and Vertical Landing (STOVL) aircraft creates a complex three-dimensional flow field between jet streams, the airframe surface and the ground. A proper understanding and numerical prediction of this flow is important in the design of such aircraft. In this paper an experimental facility, used to gather validation data suitable for testing C...

The feasibility of using a stand alone Fluidic Thrust-Vectoring (FTV) system for the purpose of longitudinal trim of an unmanned aerial vehicle is the focus of the research presented in this paper. Since the fluidic thrust vectoring requires high pressure secondary air to deflect the engine exhaust gases, this research also provides an analytical toolset for preliminary sizing of a suitable sec...
متن کاملAn analytical study on the performance of the organic Rankine cycle for turbofan engine exhaust heat recovery
Due to energy shortage and global warming, issues of energy saving have become more important. To increase the energy efficiency and reduce the fuel consumption, waste heat recovery is a significant method for energy saving. The organic Rankine cycle (ORC) has great potential to recover the waste heat from the core jet exhaust of a turbofan engine and use it to produce power. Preliminary study ...
