Turbojet Ideal Cycle
1. **Problem Statement:**
Determine if the given turbojet cycle is ideal or real based on the provided data and solve for the ideal cycle if applicable.
2. **Given Data:**
- Ambient temperature $T_a = 233$ K
- Ambient pressure $P_a = 26.4$ kPa
- Inlet velocity $u_1 = 0.85$ Mach
- Combustion chamber temperature $T_3 = 1200$ K
- Nozzle exit velocity $u_4 = 600$ m/s
- Nozzle exit area $A_4 = 0.2$ m$^2$
- Fuel heating value $HV = 43000$ kJ/kg
3. **Assumptions for Ideal Turbojet Cycle:**
- Isentropic compression and expansion (no losses)
- Perfect gas behavior with constant specific heats
- No pressure losses in combustion chamber
- Complete combustion
4. **Step 1: Check if cycle is ideal or real**
- The problem does not provide efficiency or loss data.
- Since velocities and temperatures are given without losses, assume ideal cycle.
5. **Step 2: Calculate inlet velocity $u_1$ in m/s**
- Speed of sound $a = \sqrt{\gamma R T}$, for air $\gamma=1.4$, $R=287$ J/kg.K
- Calculate $a_1 = \sqrt{1.4 \times 287 \times 233} = \sqrt{93386.6} \approx 305.6$ m/s
- Then $u_1 = 0.85 \times 305.6 = 259.8$ m/s
6. **Step 3: Calculate mass flow rate $\dot{m}$ at nozzle exit**
- Use continuity: $\dot{m} = \rho_4 A_4 u_4$
- Need $\rho_4$ (density at nozzle exit). Assume ideal gas and find $P_4$ and $T_4$.
7. **Step 4: Estimate $T_4$ using energy balance**
- For ideal cycle, kinetic energy at inlet and outlet relate to enthalpy changes.
- Use $h_3 - h_4 = \frac{u_4^2 - u_1^2}{2}$
- Specific heat at constant pressure $c_p \approx 1005$ J/kg.K
- Calculate $h_3 = c_p T_3 = 1005 \times 1200 = 1,206,000$ J/kg
- Calculate kinetic energy difference: $\frac{600^2 - 259.8^2}{2} = \frac{360000 - 67588}{2} = 146206$ J/kg
- Then $h_4 = h_3 - 146206 = 1,059,794$ J/kg
- Calculate $T_4 = \frac{h_4}{c_p} = \frac{1,059,794}{1005} \approx 1054$ K
8. **Step 5: Calculate pressure at nozzle exit $P_4$ assuming isentropic expansion**
- Use $\frac{T_4}{T_3} = \left(\frac{P_4}{P_3}\right)^{\frac{\gamma-1}{\gamma}}$
- Need $P_3$, assume compressor pressure ratio $r_c$ (not given), so cannot calculate $P_4$ exactly.
- Without $P_3$, cannot proceed further.
9. **Conclusion:**
- Insufficient data to fully solve the ideal cycle.
- Since no losses or efficiencies are given, and problem asks to ignore if real cycle, we treat this as ideal.
- Partial calculations show inlet velocity, outlet temperature, and kinetic energy relations.
**Final answer:**
- The cycle is assumed ideal based on data.
- Inlet velocity $u_1 \approx 259.8$ m/s.
- Nozzle exit temperature $T_4 \approx 1054$ K.
- Further calculations require compressor pressure ratio or pressures.
