    • 3 Pages

    How do you make a turbofan more efficient? Connecticut based engine maker Pratt & Whitney (P&W) approached this dilemma by simply adding a gear. Their new PurePower PW1000G series engine utilizes an advanced gear system that allows the engine’s fan to operate at a different speed than the low-pressure compressor and turbine. The new gear system‚ along with an all new highly advanced core‚ delivers double digit improvements in fuel efficiency‚ environmental emissions and noise. Although this isn’t

    through an object‚ it produces a total force on the object. This force is a combined force of lift and drag forces (Anderson 2007). External flows past objects have been studied extensively because of their many practical applications. For example‚ airfoils are made into streamline shapes in order to increase the lifts‚ and at the same time‚ reducing the aerodynamic drags exerted on the wings. On the other hand‚ flow past a blunt body‚ such as a circular cylinder‚ usually experiences boundary layer
