How to choose thermodynamic cycle for designing new jet engine?
While designing new jet engine what parameters are important for choosing thermodynamic cycle?
what other parameters are important for jet engine designing?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
as minger said you have to keep in mind the brayton cycle while designing the jet engine ,
but the operating parameters are depending upon your initial requirements, i.e. for which aircraft are you designing, what is the speed of it, how much force required to propel it, its altitude, which type of jet engine you using, etc.

from that you have some parameters of the nods of the cycle and from that you an go further.
 
Brayton Cycle.
Parameters for designing : Combustion chamber temperature ( you do not want to damage
your turbine ), Compression ratio. I think those two are quite important.
