Propulsion Systems

Size estimate is obtained through NDARC and other tools. Engine gas flow is matched with requirements. Mission Analysis and performance charts are made and they are verified using off-design analysis. Converged properties in NDARC for more detailed analysis and final selection of propulsion system.

The Loss Analysis performed on focus on calculating ducting area, ensuring subsonic flow, and calculating pressure losses due to bends and friction.The calculated gas flow required becomes a primary output along with the pressure and temperature losses at each station.
