DIFFUSER
First, because the Mach number is given, M, = 3, and the ambient temperature is
T, = 258.4 K(465.2°R), one can find the speed of sound a,:
a= yA,
= 322.2 mis (1057 ft/s)
Thus, the ramjet velocity is
Mya, = 3 x 322.2 mls = 967.1 m/s (3172 fs)
‘Next, for the stagnation temperature Tia,
Ta _ yolie
[1+ Sta],
and so
qT =aseax[1+
1 S 3] = 723.9K (1303°R)
‘Thus, because the diffuser is adiabatic the total temperature at the diffuser
To = Ta = 723.9K(1303°R).
Also, for the stagnation pressure pu,
and s0 pa = 57.1 kPa[1 + 113°] #1 = 2099 kPa (304.4psia). = -
‘Thus, because the diffuser, combustor, and nozzle are ideal, the stagnation
pressure is constant through the entire engine:
Pe = Pu = Po = 2099 kPa (304.4 psia).
BURNER
It is given that the burner exit total temperature is Tj = 1944 K(3500°R) and the
heating value of the fuel is 46,520 kJ/kg. The specific heat at constant pressure is
1.005 kI/(kg-K) for y = 1.40.
Thus, the fuel flow is given by the first law of thermodynamics:

or
rag _ 1.195
f= Tha ey = 0.02636,
which is small and consistent with the ideal assumption of negligible fuel flow
rates .NOZZLE ,
For an ideal analysis, the total temperature is constant from the burner through the
nozzle (adiabatic):
Teg = 1944K (3500°R),
Next, at the nozzle exit, because for the ideal case the exit pressure matches the
ambient pressure,
7.1 kPa(8.29 psia),
and from the definition of stagnation pressure,
P=
p= pe [1+ z ai] 3
thus, solving for the nozzle exit Mach number Ms yields
which is identical to the inlet Mach number (as shown by Eq. 2.3.9)
Therefore, the nozzle exit temperature is
Tes 3500
[re esta] ~ [3.0005
and the nozzle exit gas velocity is
us = Mgas

T= = 694.4K (1250°R),
z

TOTAL THRUST AND TFC
Finally, the ideal thrust does not have a pressure thrust component, and so

Thus, the TSFC is
