Gas Turbine Exam Questions with 100%

Correct Answers | Latest Update


- ✔✔To provide a uniform supply of air to the compressor so the

compressor can operate efficiently.

aeolipile - ✔✔consisted of a covered kettle of water that was heated to

produce steam. The steam was then routed through two vertical tubes and

into a spherical container. Attached to the spherical container were several

discharge tubes arranged radially around the container. As steam filled the

container, it would escape through the discharge tubes and cause the

sphere to rotate.

Dr. Sanford Moss - ✔✔The history of mechanical jet propulsion began in

1900, when ___ submitted his masters thesis on gas turbines

rocket - ✔✔is a nonairbreathing engine that carries its own fuel as well as

the oxygen needed for the fuel to burn

types of rockets in use

, . Solid-propellant rockets - ✔✔use a solid fuel that is mixed with an oxidizer

and formed into a specific shape that promotes an optimum burning rate.

Once ignited, the fuel produces an extremely high velocity discharge of gas

through a nozzle at the rear of the rocket body. The reaction to the rapid

discharge is forward motion of the rocket body. used primarily to propel

some military weapons and, at times, provide additional thrust for takeoff of

heavily loaded aircraft. These booster rockets attach to an aircraft structure

and provide the additional thrust needed for special-condition takeoffs.

liquid-fuel rocket - ✔✔which uses fuel and an oxidizing agent such as liquid

oxygen. The two liquids are carried in tanks aboard the rocket. When the

liquids are mixed, the reaction is so violent that a tremendous amount of

heat is generated. The resulting high velocity gas jet behind the rocket

provides enough thrust to propel an object.

ramjet engine - ✔✔is an athodyd, or aero-thermodynamic-duct., are air-

breathing engines with no moving parts. to draw air into the engine, this

one should be moving forward at a high velocity before it can produce

thrust. Once air enters the engine, fuel is injected and ignited to provide the

heat needed to accelerate the air and produce thrust. Because ramjets

must be moving forward to produce thrust, they are limited in their use.
