ME 8096 -GAS DYNAMICS AND JET PROPULSION (R 2017)

DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL

PREPARED BY:K.SANTHOSH KUMAR (AP/MECH)

 SYLLABUS
UNIT I BASIC CONCEPTS AND ISENTROPIC FLOWS

Energy and momentum equations of compressible

fluid flows – Stagnation states, Mach waves and
Mach cone – Effect of Mach number on
compressibility – Isentropic flow through variable
ducts – Nozzle and Diffusers
 AIM AND OBJECTIVE OF THE SUBJECT

To learn about the basic concept and importance of Gas dynamics.

To understand how the flow takes place in flow and non flow systems. To
understand the phenomena of shock, Fanno and Rayleigh flow.
To understand the thrust equation and how it used in aircraft and rocket
propulsion in an efficient way.
STEADY FLOW ENERGY EQUATION
P1-pressure of the working substances entering the system(N/mm²)
v1-specific volume entering the system(m³/kg)
U1-specific internal energy(J/kg)
Z1-datum level(m)
c1-velocity(m/sec)
Q-Heat supplied(J/kg)
W-work delivered by the system(J/kg)

GZ 1  + (C 1 2 /2) + H 1  +Q = GZ 2  + (C 2 2 /2) + W

Different Regions of Compressible Flow Diagram

The various regions of flow are:

Incompressible region (M ≈ 0)
Subsonic region (M < 1)
Transonic region (0.8 – 1.2)
Supersonic region (M > 1 and M < 1)
Hypersonic region (M ≥ 5)
