At what point in an axial flow turbojet engine will the highest gas press. occur?
|
At the compressor outlet(burner inltet.
|
What does a nozzle diaphragm in a turbine engine do?
|
Directs the flow of gases to strike the turbine blades at the desired angle.
|
The fan rotational speed of a dual axial compressor forward fan engine is the same as the..?
|
Low pressure compressor.
|
The abbreviation Pt17 used in turbine engine term means..?
|
The total pressure at station number 17.
|
How should the blending of blades and vanes in a turbine engine be performed?
|
Parallel to the length of the blades using smooth contours to minimize stress points.
|
What turbine engine section provides for proper mixing of the fuel and air?
|
Combustion section.
|
In a gas turbine engine, combustion occurs at a constant..?
|
Pressure.
|
What is the relationship between thrust and RPM in jet engines?
|
At higher engine speeds, thrust increases rapidly with small increases in RPM.
|
Some high volume turboprop and turbojet engines are equipped w/ two-spool or split compressors. what happens to these engines when operated at high altitudes?
|
The low press. rotor will increase in speed as the compressor load decreases in the lower density air.
|
Turbine nozzle diaphragms located on the upstream side of each turbine wheel, are used in the gas turbine engine to..?
|
Increase the velocity of the heated gases flowing past this point.
|
Where is the ighest gas pressure in a turbojet engine?
|
In the entrance of the burner section.
|
An exhaust cone placed aft of te turbine in a jet engine will cause the pressure in the first part of the exhaust duct to..?
|
Increase and the velocity to decrease.
|
What is the function of the stator vane assembly at the discharge end of a typical axial flow compressor?
|
To straighten airflow to eliminate turbulence.
|
The turbine section of a jet engine drives the..?
|
Compressor section.
|
When starting a turbine engine a hot start is indicated..?
|
If the exhaust gas temp. exceeds specified limits.
