% Jet engine model producing thrust and specific fuel consumption. The default data structure has the afterburner off. The default fuel is kerosene. Type Turbojet for a demo. The demo is for the F135 engine. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: [t, iSp, tS] = Turbojet( m, d, p ) d = Turbojet; -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ m (1,:) Mach number d (1,1) Data structure for engine .gamma (1,1) Specific heat ratio of air .cP (1,1) Specific heat of air .qR (1,1) Heating value of the fuel .tT4 (1,1) Temperature at station 4 .tT7 (1,1) Temperature at station 7 (afterburner) .aInlet (1,1) Inlet area (m^2) p (1,1) Standard atmosphere ------- Outputs ------- t (1,:) Thrust (N) iSp (1,:) Specific impulse (s) tS (1,:) Specific thrust (N/kg/s) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reference: Kerrebrock, J.L, "Aircraft Engines and Gas Turbines", MIT Press, 1992, pp. 36-39 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
