The aim of this project is to study the effect of flow inside the subsonic co-axial nozzle used in aircraft turbofan engine. The study has been carried out by varying the Mach number of secondary flow by maintaining the constant Mach number of primary flow. The coaxial nozzle of the circular section was designed and analysed using CATIA and ANSYS V15.0 software for a Mach number range of 0.3 to 0.6 with secondary sub-sonic flow .The pressure and velocity contours were investigated along the flow. The increase in the velocity difference between the primary and secondary flow results in more turbulence which in turn decreases the potential core length.
Recent trends in aircraft design research have resulted in development of many unconventional configurations mostly aimed at improving aerodynamic efficiency. The blended wing body (BWB) is one such configuration that holds potential in this regard. In its current form the BWB although promises a better lift to drag (L/D) ratio it is still not able to function to its maximum capability due to design modifications such as twist and reflexed airfoils to overcome stability problems in the absence of a tail. This work aims to maximize the impact of a BWB. A design approach of morphing the BWB with a conventional aft fuselage is proposed. Such a configuration intends to impart full freedom to the main wing and the blended forward fuselage to contribute in lift
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
