AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the relationship between fuel/air ratio and combustion chamber temperature in turbojet engines. The original poster seeks a chart illustrating combustion chamber temperature rise as a function of fuel/air ratio, with chamber inlet temperature as a variable. A response highlights the importance of combustion efficiency in understanding these parameters and suggests that knowledge of combustion efficiency is necessary for calculating temperature rise. The conversation emphasizes the challenge of finding specific data on this topic. Overall, the need for detailed charts and calculations in aerospace engineering is underscored.

hi, I am studying aerospace engineering in oz, and I am doing an assignment on turbojet engines and I am looking for a chart on Combustion chamber temperature rise versus fuel air ratio with chamber inlet temperature as a parameter but I am having no luck lin finding one can anyone point me in the right direction.

cheers

The only thing I can think of off the top of my head relates those parameters is the combustion efficiency. You would need to know that (among a couple of other terms) to calculate the temperature rise.
 

Thread 'Space Stuff and Launch Info'

Due to the constant never ending supply of "cool stuff" happening in Aerospace these days I'm creating this thread to consolidate posts every time something new comes along. Please feel free to add random information if its relevant. So to start things off here is the SpaceX Dragon launch coming up shortly, I'll be following up afterwards to see how it all goes. :smile: https://blogs.nasa.gov/spacex/
