Chapter 9, Problem 9135

(choose chapter or problem)

Consider an aircraft powered by a turbojet engine that has a pressure ratio of 9. The aircraft is stationary on the ground, held in position by its brakes. The ambient air is at 78C and 95 kPa and enters the engine at a rate of 20 kg/s. The jet fuel has a heating value of 42,700 kJ/kg, and it is burned completely at a rate of 0.5 kg/s. Neglecting the effect of the diffuser and disregarding the slight increase in mass at the engine exit as well as the inefficiencies of engine components, determine the force that must be applied on the brakes to hold the plane stationary.
