Gas turbine Performance lecture 1Introducing the GE H80 turboprop engine (goals week 3 + 4)
By incorporating sophisticated technologies like bladed disc rotor design, improved
compressor and turbine aerodynamics, and high temperature capability materials, GE is
delivering more power and better efficiency for aerial application and utility aircraft
missions.
The principle of propulsion
1. Air is being accelerated.
2. Air experiences force from
balloon.
3. Balloon experiences same force in
opposite direction from air.
𝐹 =𝑚∙𝑎
𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 = − 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛
Newtons second law
𝐹 =𝑚∙𝑎
𝐹 = 𝑚 ∙ ∆𝑣
m = massastroom
Velocities air and aircraft

Thrust
𝐹 = 𝑚 ∙ (𝐶B − 𝐶? )

Power from engine:
1. Power towards aircraft (𝜂F ) propulsive efficiency
2. Acceleration air
, Definition 𝜂F :
𝑃HIJKHLL 𝑃2?OPO2KM 𝑝𝑜𝑤𝑒𝑟 𝑑𝑒𝑙𝑖𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑜 𝑎𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑟𝑎𝑓𝑡
𝜂F = = =
𝑃MNM2L 𝑃2?OPO2KM + 𝑃2?O 𝑝𝑜𝑤𝑒𝑟 𝑑𝑒𝑙𝑖𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑑 𝑏𝑦 𝑒𝑛𝑔𝑖𝑛𝑒
Power towards aircraft:
𝑃2?OPO2KM = 𝐹 ∙ 𝑣
𝑃2?OPO2KM = 𝑚 ∙ (𝐶B − 𝐶? ) ∙ 𝐶2
𝑃2?OPO2KM = 𝑚 ∙ (𝐶B − 𝐶? ) ∙ 𝐶?
Power towards air:
𝑃2?O = ∆𝐸U,2?O
1 1
𝑃2?O = 𝑚 ∙ (𝑣NHM )Y − 𝑚 ∙ (𝑣?Z )Y

𝑃2?O = 𝑚 ∙ [𝐶B − 𝐶? \ − 𝑚 ∙ 0Y

Conclusion:

𝜂F =

𝜂F = 𝑚 ∙ [𝐶B − 𝐶? \ ∙ ∙ [𝐶B − 𝐶? \ ∙ 𝐶? + 𝑚 ∙ [𝐶B − 𝐶? \

Efficiency versus thrust
We want:
1. A strong engine.
2. An efficient engine.

problem... Damn, but... 𝐹 = 𝑚 ∙ [𝐶B − 𝐶? \
So, solution: a large m (massastroom). Preferably SMALL acceleration of LARGE mass.
