“Answer ANY FIVE Questions
Define: Skin ‘friction drag and normal pressure drag.
‘Consider a flat plate, a circular cylinder and an aerofoiL
Compare the sun of skin friction drag and normal pressuredrag over these two dimensional objects by drawing
pattems around these Figures,
An airplane weighing 2,40,000 N has a gross wing aree of
80 sqm. It has a maximum level speed of 120 mis, 2
‘max.C, of 2.2 with flaps down and C, max without flaps is
1.5, Plot the variation of C, with V, and hence estimate the
speed below whic flaps must be lowered at sea level and
at an altitude of 4.000 m («= 0.6685). Further explain the
significance of equivalent air peed,
Explain the significance of stalling speed and stalling
angle. (Marks)
‘An aitplane has @ wing loading of 2450 Nisqm and has
rag polar given by Co = 0.016 + 0.055 C2.
Calculate its maximum LD ratio, V for minimum drag and
LID ata speed of 100 mis. (2 Maris)
Develop 2 condition for minimum sinking speed of an
‘isplane in power off fight, A glider weighing 5300 N
with elliptic wing tas a gross area of 10.5 sqm. It is
‘equired to maintain a glide angle of3 degrees at a forward
speed of $0 m/s. If the pider has Cy = 0.015, determine
its aspect rato
What are the essential differences between turboprop,
turbofan and turbojet engines? (Marks)
‘A propeller of 2 m diameter is mounted on an sirplane
‘ying a speed of 216 kmph. If the velocity of the propeller
slip stream for behind the proper is 81 m/s. Caleuate
the propulsive efficiency and thrust developed by the
propeller. (loMarks)
Derive expressions for range and endurance of a propeller
driven airplane. A piston prop airplane has the following
data: W=13,S00N, S=168 sqm, b=115 m, Cpo-0.025,
2-08, The single engine supplies a maximum of 240 HP
st the propeller effcieney of O.85. It caries a weight
‘action of usable fuel as 13% in one version. The engine
consumes 0.274 kg masses of fuel per kW per hour
Determine its maximum range and endurance.
‘An airplane having a weight of 156,960 N and a using area
‘of 49 m has a drag polar given by CD = 0.017+006 CL!
It accelerates under standard sea level conditions from
velocity of 100 m/s to 220 m/s. Obtain the distance
covered and the time taken during the acecleration,
assuming the thrust covered and the time taken during the
acceleration, assuming the thrust output to remain roughly
constant at $3,950 N.
