3. Economy Flying

4. Requirements of Economic Flying In recent years, interest in highly efficient flight transportation is renewed. This has spurred investigation into very high bypass ratio fans. Some economic optimization of turbofan cycle shows a bypass ratio of 100. The weight of cowl and drag due to the cowl will have high penalty on total cost if bypass ratio is greater than 25. This led to thinking of high bypass ratio open turbofan engines. A Deliberate Irreversible Process. But Mild Turboprops.

7. Ideal Propeller

8. For a propeller that is lightly loaded :

9. The propeller thrust is The propeller power is

10. The propeller efficiency:

11. Power Generated by A Turboprop The total power generated for thrust of an ideal turboprop is given by: Define work coefficient : Total thrust generated by turboprop

12. Propeller Power Propeller work coefficient: Shaft Energy Balance

13. The work coefficient of a propeller depends on compressor pressure ratio and turbine pressure ratio. The compressor pressure ratio and turbine pressure ratio are two independent design variables for a turboprop.
