gsphelp  Combustor pressure loss

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Design point relative pressure loss is specified in the Design tab sheet. Off-design point pressure loss is determined depending on the settings in the Pressure Loss tab sheet. The first option Specified design rel. pressure loss only calculates off design relative pressure loss proportional to squared corrected entry mass flow (see pressure losses). The second option User specified off-design press. loss allows direct user specification of off-design pressure loss. The third option uses a pressure loss map with relative pressure loss either as a function of corrected entry mass flow or fuel flow.

 

Click the Calculate Fundamental Pressure Loss option to calculate additional fundamental pressure loss, especially significant in afterburners.
