AEROSPACE ENGINEERING SCHOOL OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING AND DESIGN THE THERMODYNAMIC ANALYSIS AND PERFORMANCE CHARACTRISTICS OF A TURBOFAN JET ENGINE By J. E‚ Ibok 2011 Supervisor: Dr Lionel Ganippa ABSTRACT This work focuses on the performance analysis of a twin spool mixed flow turbofan engine. The main objective was to investigate the effects of using hydrogen‚ kerosene and natural gas fuel on the performance characteristics such as net thrust‚ specific fuel consumption and propulsive

Boiler Basics Design and operation A boiler is an enclosed vessel that provides a means for combustion heat to be transferred into water until it becomes heated water or steam. The hot water or steam under pressure is then usable for transferring the heat for the steam requirements of process industries or for power generation. Combustion boilers are designed to use the chemical energy in fuel to raise the energy content of water so that it can be used for heating and power applications. Many fossil

A2 Chemistry Coursework Section 1 Aims: I aim to find out the order of reaction with respect to [H2O2] and [2I-]. I aim to find out the activation enthalpy of the reaction by finding the rate of reaction at different temperatures using the Arrhenius Equation. The experiment will go as follows: Into a conical flask put 15cm3 of distilled water and add 2cm3 of [X]moldm-3 potassium iodide (KI) solution and 1cm3 of 2moldm-3 sulphuric acid. Then add to this 2.5cm3 of 5vol (0.42moldm-3) hydrogen

Course paper in Philosophy of Science and Ethics Title: The relevance of Statistics and Probability for the study of the thermodynamics properties (The Maxwell-Boltzmann Theory) Abstract There are many philosophical debates as to the appropriateness of the use of statistics and probability as scientific research measures. Many renowned philosophers believe that since scientific investigation aims at the ultimate goal of presenting truth about the observations and processes in our universe

reaction I shall: Investigate the effect of concentration for each reactant and use the results to find the rate equation for this particular reaction. Investigate the effect of temperature on the rate and use the results to find the activation enthalpy for this particular reaction. Background detail The Reaction:2 The reaction I am studying is often referred to as an iodine clock reaction.’ A clock reaction is where the time taken to form a definite‚ small amount of a product at the beginning

The main purpose of the experiment is to investigate heat transfer processes using the tubular heat exchanger which is a specific type of heat exchangers. Moreover‚ the primary goals are to compare the two types of flow cases‚ co-current flow and countercurrent flow as well as taking the analyses of their temperature changes through the graphical curves and observing the heat transmission via the operating apparatus. The working principles of the tubular heat exchanger is analyzed and the fluid temperate

Strong glasses exhibit resistance to structural degradation and generally with a small enthalpy of the structural relaxation kinetics (glass-transition kinetics). The glassy materials with a higher fragility show a relatively narrow glass transition temperature range‚ while those with low fragility have a comparatively broad glass transition

heat of solution reaction is similar to that is present when a hot metal is put into water. There is an exchange of heat between the reaction mixture and the solvent‚ water. The heat flow associated with the reaction mixture is also equal to the enthalpy change. One of the simplest reactions that can be studied in solution occurs when a solid is dissolved in water. Same with the neutralization of HCl
