ROCKET VS. AIR-BREATHING PROPULSION
Take mass stored in a vehicle and throw it backwards → Use reaction force to propel vehicle All fuel and oxidizer are carried onboard the vehicle Capture mass from environment and set that mass in motion backwards → Use reaction force to propel vehicle Only fuel is carried onboard Oxidizer (air) is ‘harvested’ continuously during flight

AIR-BREATHING PROPULSION
Gas turbine engines power every modern aircraft and will for foreseeable future Gas turbines used for land-based power application, rocket engine turbo-pumps, marine applications, ground vehicles (tanks), etc. Many technical challenges to be addressed (Fuel Economy, Emissions, Noise) Fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, combustion, controls, materials, etc. One of most complicated, parts, extreme environment device on earth Enormous market: vast research and development $$ Development time of engine > development time of aircraft (5:3) Market is so competitive that engines are sold for a loss

FUEL CONSUMPTION TREND
U.S. airlines, hammered by soaring oil prices, will spend $5 billion more on fuel this year or even a greater sum, draining already thin cash reserves Airlines are among the industries hardest hit by high oil prices, which have jumped 38 percent in just 12 months. Airline stocks fell at the open of trading as a spike in crude-oil futures weighed on the sector JT8D Fuel Burn JT9D PW4084 Future Turbofan PW4052 NOTE: No Numbers 1950 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 2010 2020 Year

FUEL COST DRIVEN EXAMPLE
With fuel now largest component of operating costs, air carriers are turning to fuel-saving measures that once seemed hardly worthwhile Upswept wingtips to increase range and improve aerodynamics Taxi to and from runway on one engine to save fuel Does it make sense to actually fly slower? Do you polish an airplane or paint it? Airlines have new program to wash their aircraft/engines Other cost saving measures 1st and 2nd bag check fee (and many others new fees…) Remove all pillows from MD-80’s

WHY “AIR-BREATHING” PROPULSION
Propulsion Goal: Create a Force to Propel a Vehicle (N.S.L) 2 ‘Choices’ for Propulsion Take mass stored in a vehicle and throw it backwards → Use reaction force to propel vehicle Rocket Propulsion (MAE: 4262) All fuel and oxidizer are carried onboard vehicle Capture mass from environment and set that mass in motion backwards → Use reaction force to propel vehicle Air-Breathing Propulsion (MAE: 4261) Only fuel is carried onboard Oxidizer (air) is ‘harvested’ continuously during flight Airplanes are very sensitive to environment in which they operate Rockets are highly insensitive to operational environment
23
HOW ALL ROCKET WORKS Chemical Energy F Rocket Propulsion: Produces thrust by ejecting stored matter Propellants combined in combustion chamber where chemically react to form high T&P gas Gases accelerated and ejected at high velocity through nozzle, imparting momentum to engine Thrust force is reaction experienced by structure due to ejection of high velocity matter Same phenomenon pushes garden hose backward as water flows from nozzle, gun recoil QUESTION: Could a rocket engine exert thrust while discharging into a vacuum (with not atmosphere to “push against”)? Thermal Energy Kinetic Energy
24
HOW AN AIRCRAFT ENGINE WORKS
Chemical Energy Thermal Energy Kinetic Energy Flow through engine is conventionally called THRUST Composed of net change in momentum of inlet and exit air Fluid that passes around engine is conventionally called DRAG
25
SUMMARY: ESTIMATES FOR THRUST
Rocket Air-Breathing Engine Points to remember: Mass flow for rocket is propellant carried onboard (fuel + oxidizer) Mass for air-breathing engine is fuel carried onboard and air harvested from environment as airplane flies Rockets usually require far higher thrust levels than airplanes Airplanes usually fly for far greater durations than rockets

29
MAJOR GAS TURBINE ENGINE COMPONENTS
Inlet: Continuously draw air into engine through inlet Slows, or diffuses, to compressor Compressor / Fan: Compresses air Generally two, or three, compressors in series Raises stagnation temperature and pressure (enthalpy) of flow Work is done on the air Combustor: Combustion or burning processes Adds fuel to compressed air and burns it Converts chemical to thermal energy Process takes place at relatively constant pressure
30
MAJOR GAS TURBINE ENGINE COMPONENTS
Generally two or three turbines in series Turbine powers, or drives, the compressor Air is expanded through turbine (P & T ↓) Work is done by the air on the blades Use some of that work to drive compressor Next: Expand in a nozzle Convert thermal to kinetic energy (turbojet) Burning may occur in duct downstream of turbine (afterburner) Expand through another turbine Use this extracted work to drive a fan (turbofan) Nozzle: Flow is ejected back into the atmosphere, but with increased momentum Raises velocity of exiting mass flow

NASA'S X-43A SCRAMJET BREAKS SPEED RECORD
“NASA's X-43A research vehicle screamed into the record books again Tuesday, demonstrating an air-breathing engine can fly at nearly 10 times the speed of sound. Preliminary data from the scramjet-powered research vehicle show its revolutionary engine worked successfully at nearly Mach 9.8, or 7,000 mph, as it flew at about 110,000 feet.” “NASA's X-43A scramjet program successfully smashed its own world speed record for aircraft by flying at nearly 10 times the speed of sound. The flight proves its radical, air-breathing engine can function at speeds of nearly 12,000 kilometers per hour.” “Aviation history was made today as NASA successfully flew its experimental X-43A research vehicle, a forerunner of craft that could well offer alternate access to space in the future.”

New Program emphasis is on compliance with noise regulations For -200 models, a new low-emissions combustion system, or E-Kit, has been FAR 25 certified. Reduces NOx by 25 percent, unburned hydrocarbons by 99 percent and smoke by 52 percent relative to current models The -200 is also the exclusive power for the Super 27 re-engining program, in which Pratt & Whitney, in cooperation with Goodrich Aerostructures, is offering 727 operators a solution to achieve Stage 3/Chapter 3 compliance with improved performance. Involves replacing two outboard engines with new JT8D-217C/219 models and adding noise suppression equipment. The Super 27 can increase range up to 1,200 nautical miles and permits carrying up to 30 more passengers or up to 10,000 pounds in additional cargo.

A GOOD PLACE FOR MARKET NEWS
Singapore Airlines places US$7.35 bln Boeing order August 25, :13:57 (ET) SINGAPORE, Aug 25 (Reuters) - Singapore Airlines Ltd. ((SIAL.SI)), the world's second-largest airline by market value, said on Wednesday it had ordered 31 Boeing Co (BA,Trade) long-range ERs worth about US$7.35 billion in a fleet renewal programme. The aircraft will be powered by engines from General Electric Co (GE,Trade), Asia's most profitable airline said. The national carrier had asked airframe manufacturers Boeing Co (BA,Trade) and Airbus SAS ((EAD.DE))((EAD.PA)) to bid for new plane orders it may place later this year. Boeing, the No. 2 maker of jetliners, is in a dogfight for market share with No. 1 Airbus. The planes will cover the medium-haul and regional needs of the 57 percent government-owned airline over the coming years.
