Hi guys
I'm making a project about jet engine.
I need to write 10 pages of the mechanical part of a jet engine.
I already did it for physics.
What can i talk about. I need formules en stuff in the 10 pages
Ty for the help guys!

on Phys.org
What have you found out for yourself so far ?

Please use some recognisable language when replying .

Yes sorry for the language I am not a native English speaker but i will do my best.
I think I can write something about the mechanical efficiency of the engine.
Also about the rotation of the blades.
Maybe i can do something how to calculate the speed..
I can do something about the inertia force ( traagheidskracht in dutch).
I don't know if i can get good information of this things.
Maybe you have something in mind with good information?

yes I already had that but its a little useless to me when i don't know what to use.
you know i didn't ask for helping me write jet engine pdf on google...

Well, it seems like the PDF that was posted in reply to your question was pretty much on-topic. Do you want us to do your homework for you?

Can you expand on your thoughts above? "Mechanical efficience" wouldn't seem to apply, but fluid dynamics would seem to be a big "mechanical" part of a jet engine's operation...
 
Idk man but i thought you guys could give me more concrete stuff than 300 pages.
But np
Thanks for the help man
and the mechanical efficiency. i might be wrong but i thought there was the thermal efficiency and the mechanical efficiency.

Mechanically/aerodynamically what determines the optimum number of blades per turbine? What determines the optimum number of turbine stages? Compare and contrast a turbojet with a ramjet mechanically... Why are they different?

That should get you to 10 pages easy! (and be pretty interesting as well) Have fun! :smile:
