SUMMARY OF PARAMETRIC ANALYSIS 18
EXAMPLE PARAMETRIC ANALYSIS fan pressure ratio 1.4, flight Mach n. 0.8, standard altitude 40 kft variation of the remaining two design variables 19
increasing either the bypass ratio or the compressor pressure ratio generally reduces the specific fuel consumption increasing the bypass ratio naturally reduces the specific thrust for high bypass ratio, increasing the bypass ratio no longer reduces the specific fuel consumption because the bypass and core velocities are so disparate for each compression ratio, there is a bypass ratio that gives the min thrust specific fuel consumption optimum bypass ratio * 20

ASSUMPTIONS the flow areas are constant at stations 4, 4.5, 6, 16, 6A, 8 dry (AB off) the flow in choked at the high-pressure turbine entrance nozzle (4), at the low-pressure t. (4.5) and at the exhaust nozzle (8) the exhaust nozzle may un-choke at low throttle settings component efficiency and pressure ratio (burner, mixer, AB, exhaust) bleed air and cooling air fractions are constant power takeoffs are constant the air and combustion gases are modeled as perfect gas in thermodynamic equilibrium simplifying gas model: gases are calorically perfect upstream and downstream of the burner and afterburner 23
