Engine size
  • Any number of performance requirements can drive
    engine size (See RayAD 5.2)
  • - Takeoff
  • - Ground roll and distance over an obstacle
  • - And/or balanced field length (BFL)
  • - Time and/or distance to climb
  • - Cruise altitude and/or speed
  • - Acceleration and/or turn performance
  • - Engine out performance (for multi-engine
    aircraft)
  • Historical thrust-to-weight or power-to-weight
    data can be used for first pass sizing
  • - See RayAD Tables 5.1 and 5.2
  • UAV historical data is limited and we will use
    takeoff requirements for initial sizing
  • - See RayAD Figure 5.4

IC engines
  • Engine power available (BHP)
  • Output per unit size varies by type
  • - Small piston engines run at high RPM, have
    higher output per unit size. Same for rotary
    engines
  • For given engine at given altitude and RPM
  • - Almost no variation with speed
  • At given RPM, manifold pressure varies with
    altitude
  • Max power varies with air density ratio (see
    RayAD Eqn13.10)
  • - Bhp Bhp0?(8.55??-1)/7.55
    (18.1)
  • Engine SFC
  • Runs high for small and rotary engines
  • For given engine varies slightly with power
    available
  • - Typically 5-10 lower at cruise condition
  • Engine power-to-weight varies with engine type

Propellers
  • Two basic types of propellers (See RayAD10.4
    13.6)
  • - Fixed pitch and Variable pitch
  • Efficiency (?p) varies with design and
    installation
  • - Blockage and flow scrubbing generate losses
  • Fixed pitch efficiency varies with advance ratio
    (J)
  • - See RayADFig13.13
  • - Props generally designed for climb or cruise
  • Variable pitch efficiency typically constant over
    range of design speeds
  • - Use a nominal ?p 0.8 for an initial guess
  • Thrust horsepower (THP) defined by
  • - Thp Bhp??p Ta?V(fps)/550Ta?V(KTAS)/325.6
  • Where .Ta Thrust available
  • Therefore..
  • - Thrust available decreases with speed
  • Ta 325.6?BHP??p /KTAS (18.2)

18-9
11
Propeller size
  • Key sizing constraint is tip speed (Mach number)
  • - Linear function of engine RPM (VR?)
  • Lightest-most reliable design is direct drive
  • - No gear reduction
  • Some UAVs use high RPM engines with belt systems
    for speed reduction

- Manned aircraft prop sizing can be used for
UAVs - There will always be exceptions for
special application aircraft (e.g.Altus)

Turboprop engines
  • Have typical prop characteristics (and
    constraints) plus jet exhaust for thrust
    augmentation
  • Thrust component is added for equivalent shaft
    HP, the difference between Shp and EShp (see
    RayAD 13.7)
  • Power available decreases with altitude
  • Decreases with pressure ? (see RayAD Table E.3)
  • SFC variation with altitude less severe than jet
  • Typical Lth/Dia 2 - 3
  • Typical density 22 pcf
  • Typical diameter 4?Vol/(??L/D)1/3

Jet engines
  • Includes turbojet (TBJet) and turbofan (TBFan)
    engines
  • Thrust, weight, airflow and TSFC depend on design
    and technology content and operating conditions
  • Difficult to capture in general purpose
    parametrics
  • Thrust available decreases with altitude - all
    engines
  • TSFC decreases with altitude - all engines
  • Effect of speed on thrust varies with bypass
    ratio (BPR)
  • Low BPR - thrust generally increases with speed
  • High BPR - thrust decreases with speed
  • See RayAD Appendix E for specific examples
  • Thrust-to-weight varies with engine size, BPR and
    advanced technology content
  • Physical geometry primarily a function of design
    BPR
  • Physical installation reduces thrust by 5-20

TBJet and TBFan size
  • Despite its apparent simplicity, Raymers engine
    size parametric correlates well with our database
  • - One difference is that Raymer bases his
    correlation on engine inlet diameter
  • - Our data shows that it correlates with overall
    engine diameter
  • Parametrics are for uninstalled engine weight
  • - Nominal TBFan T0/Weng 5.5
  • - An installation factor of 1.3 is applied to
    estimate installed engine weight

21
Afterburning
  • Way to augment jet engine performance to meet
    peak thrust requirements such as..
  • Takeoff.combat maneuvers.supersonic flight
  • Works by injecting fuel into engine exhaust to
    react residual oxygen and increase
    temperature/jet velocity
  • Inefficient turbojet engines and turbofans can
    achieve high augmentation ratios - lots of air to
    burn
  • Efficient turbojets achieve low augmentation
    ratios
  • - Most of the air already burned
  • Essentially a ramjet on the rear of the engine
  • Only works for low-to-moderate BPR turbofans
  • - High BPR fans have insufficient overall
    pressure ratio
  • Relatively light weight but very fuel
    inefficient
  • High noise levels limit civil applications

A/B parametric data

23
TBProp baseline
  • We will use parametric data to make a first pass
    engine size estimate for our example UAV (see
    chart 15-40)
  • We assume a nominal TBProp UAV wing loading
    (W0/Sref) 30 psf, a typical plan flap Clmax
    1.8 (See RayAD Fig 5.3) and a standard Vto/Vs
    1.1
  • From RayAD Figure 5.4, required takeoff parameter
    (TOP) for a 1500 ft takeoff
  • ground roll 220 or
  • 220
  • W0/Sref/Clto?T0/W0
  • For Clto Clmax/(Vto/Vs2) 1.49 and W0 1918
    lbm
  • BHp0/W0 0.092
  • BHp0 176.5 BHp
  • BHp0/W0 correlates well with our parametric data

18-22
24
Application TBProp
  • Chart 18-13 shows turboprops of this small size
    class should be available at 2.25 Shp/lb
  • - Nominal weight would be 78.4 lbm
  • At a density of 22 lb/cuft, volume would be 3.6
    cuft
  • At nominal Lth/Diam 2.5, engine diameter (Deng)
    4Vol/(?Lth/Deng)1/3 1.22ft and length
    (Leng) 3ft
  • SFC0 would about 0.65 lbm/hr-Bhp
  • In reality, however, there are no TBProps this
    small

18-23
25
TBFan alternative
  • We will also use parametric data to make a first
    pass engine sizing for the TBFan alternative
  • We assume a nominal TBFan UAV wing loading
    (W0/Sref) 40 psf, a typical plan flap Clmax
    1.8 (See Raymer AD Fig 5.3) and a standard
    Vto/Vs 1.1
  • From RayAD Figure 5.4, required takeoff parameter
    (TOP) for a 1500 ft takeoff
  • ground roll 100 or
  • 100
  • W0/Sref/CltoT0/W0
  • For Clto Clmax/(Vto/Vs2) 1.49 and W0 2939
    lbm
  • T0/W0 0.269
  • T0 790 Lbf
  • T0/W0 correlates well with our parametric data

18-24
26
TBFan
  • From charts 18-16/17 we estimate T0/Weng 5.5
  • - Our TBFan would weigh 144 lbm
  • - At BPR 5, WdotAmax 790/30 26.3 pps
  • - From charts 18-16/17 Deng 12 in, Leng 24 in
  • From charts 18-17/19 TSFC0 0.4 and TSFCcr
    0.65
  • But unfortunately, there are no BPR 5 turbofans
    of size class (see ASE261.Engine database.xls)
  • However, there might be some under development

18-25
27
Overall results
  • The TBProp parametrics show the SFC0 value
    assumed in the Lesson 15 example is low (0.4 vs
    0.65)
  • Small engines are less efficient than larger ones
  • The performance impact will significant but it
    will make make the results fit better with our
    sizing parametrics
  • And there are no engines available at the size
    required
  • The TBFan parametrics show that Raymers values
    of cruise TSFC are optimistic (which we already
    knew) and that there are also no small BPR 5
    TBFan engines
  • - Size effects are likely to reduce TSFC also
  • However, we will continue our study as if engines
    were available since we really dont know yet
    what size air vehicle we will end up with
  • - We will, however, note these issues as
    development risk items and consider the
    implications when we select our final
    configurations

Next subject
  • From Websters New Collegiate Dictionary
  • Parameter any set of physical properties whose
    value determine the characteristics or behavior
    of a set of equations
  • Our definition
  • Propulsion parametric fundamental design
    parameter whose value determines the design or
    performance characteristics of an engine
  • Usually (but not always) a multi-variable
    relationship
  • e.g., wing loading (W0/Sref), Swet/Sref, etc.
  • Parametric model Parametric based design
    approach to define, size, estimate performance
    and do trade offs on propulsion systems
  • Different from the traditional approach

18-27
29
Parametric models
  • In the absence of real data, engine parametric
    models can be used to provide reasonable trends
    for use in pre-concept and conceptual design
  • For example, Equation 5.4 (RayAD Eq. 13.10)
    captures IC engine altitude effects and is useful
    for initial design
  • No similar effects are captured in traditional
    jet engine parametric models such as RayAD Eq.
    10.5-10.15
  • Mach and altitude effects are absent
  • More general purpose thrust and fuel flow models
    are needed and none exist
  • Therefore, we will have to develop our own jet
    engine models (both TBJet and TBFan)
  • We will use the engine performance charts in
    RayAD, Appendix E as the basis for these models

18-28
30
IC parametric model
  • Use Equation 18.1 (RayAD Eq. 13.10) to calculate
    maximum power as a function of altitude
  • BHP BHP0?(8.55?? -1)/7.55 (18.1)
  • where
  • BHP0 maximum power, SLS (sea level static)
  • ? air density ratio
  • Calculate cruise performance at 75 takeoff power
  • Assume nominal 80 propulsion efficiency (?p)
  • Estimate thrust available from
  • Ta 325.6?BHP??p/KTAS (18.2)
  • Estimate fuel flow from
  • WdotF SFC?BHP
  • where
  • SFC assumed constant (use SFC0 from chart 18-7)
  • Estimate engine weight from chart 18-7
  • For supercharged engine, assume pressure
    ratio/stage 2
  • See Raymer Figure 13.10 (page 394)
  • Adjust engine weight as appropriate

Database comparison - TBF
  • Even though model Fan Fsp values generally match
    Raymers models at BPR 0.8 and 8.0 by
    definition
  • - We have no idea what Fan Fsp might look like at
    intermediate BPR values
  • - And we have no idea how they correlate with
    real ones
  • We can get answers by assuming values of Fsp-gg
    and use Eq 18.18 to calculate Fan Fsp for typical
    engines
  • The Fsp-gg 80 data looks like it provides a
    better fit

18-38
40
Other data comparisons
  • Actual engine performance data can also be used
    to check and/or calibrate parametric model
    estimates
  • For example, parametric model performance
    estimates for typical TBProp and TBFan engines
    can be compared to actual engines under the same
    flight conditions
  • But because of design differences, even real
    engines will show performance variations
  • Nonetheless, the comparisons can be used to
    generate multipliers to ensure the model
    estimates match actual engine performance ranges
  • Comparisons with database TBProp and TBFan engine
    performance are shown in the following chart
  • TBProp model thrust available and SFC are seen to
    fit within the data spread, albeit somewhat
    optimistically
  • TBFan thrust fits the data but TSFC is about 15
    high
  • A 0.87 TBFan TSFC multiplier will compensate for
    it

42
A note about Turboprops
  • Raymers Appendix E.3 TPB model is somewhat
    unique in that performance is expressed in terms
    of thrust and TSFC, not Shp or Eshp and SFC
    WdotF/Hp
  • - This makes us work the problem backwards
  • - In a traditional propeller aircraft analysis,
    we first calculate Bhp available and then
    multiply by ?p to determine thrust horsepower
    (Thp) available
  • - The Breguet range equation includes ?p in the
    numerator and SFC is based on uninstalled Bhp
  • - In our model we calculate thrust and fuel flow
    directly
  • - We, therefore, have to calculate Thp from the
    definition Thp TV(fps)/550 TV(kts)/325.6
    and then divide by ?p to get Shp
  • - Then we calculate SFC from fuel flow and Shp

18-41
43
Installation losses
We will capture these effects using simple
installed performance knock down factors - We
will use 0.8 - 0.95 for TBJ and TBF
installations - ?p will capture all losses for
ICs and TBPs During conceptual design, actual
performance losses should be calculated for the
specific designs studied
18-42
44
Installation losses
Subsonic commercial transports achieve much
higher installed performance levels - Typically
0.9 - 0.95 for TBJ and TBF installations Simple
inlet and nozzle installations reduce losses
18-42a
45
Example - TBProp
1. Our TBProp UAV weighs 1918 lbm, has a balanced
field length requirement of 3000 ft (ground roll
1500 ft) and Clto 1.49 and wing loading of
W0/Sref 30 psf (qto 20.2 psf , takeoff speed
77.2 kts). We assumed a nominal cruise of 180
kts at 27Kft, an initial cruise weight (w4)
1726 and a cruise lift-to-drag ratio (LoDcr) of
23. What size engine is required for takeoff and
will it meet cruise requirements? 2. From RayAD
Figure 5.4, the required prop aircraft ground
roll takeoff parameter for is 220 where TOP
W0/Sref/??CLt/o(Bhp0/W0)
qt/o/(Bhp0/W0) Bhp0/W0 qto/220 0.092 - Engine
size, therefore, is BHP0 1918Klb0.092
176.5 Bhp
or
18-43

TBProp takeoff estimate
3. Because propeller models have singularities at
V0, the TBProp is sized at V V0 50 kts (M
0.076) - At an assumed ?p 0.8, takeoff thrust
(T0) can be calculated directly by definition of
BHP or T0 ? Bhp0?550??p/KTAS?1.689 919.6 lbf
- Equation 18.8 is solved for total airflow
using chart 18.33 TBP model values or Wdota
919.6/90/134 5(50/50)?(133/134) 163.2 pps -
Knowing WdotA0, the TBP model can now predict
thrust, airflow and fuel flow at cruise
conditions - For simplicity, this will be done
only once at Vcr 180 kts and an altitude of
27.4 Kft (M0.3) - Then it will be programmed in
a spreadsheet
?p is assumed to account for all installation
losses
18-44

TBProp cruise estimate
4.Equations 18.9-11 provide estimates of total
airflow (WdotA) at cruise (M0.302), where ?
(?a_at_27.4Kft)?(1.2M2)3.5 0.3556 ?
(?a_at_27.4Kft)?(1.2M2) 0.8264 WdotA
WdotA0??/sqrt(?) 64 pps - Core airflow by
definition of BPR is Wdota/(BPR1) or for BPR
133, Wdota-gg 0.48 pps - Fuel flow is
calculated using the model fuel-to-air ratio

Typical example - TBFan
  • Our TBFan alternative weighs 2914 lbm, has a
    balanced field length requirement of 3000 ft
    (ground roll 1500 ft) and Clto 1.49 and wing
    loading of W0/Sref 40 psf (qto 26.9 psf ,
    takeoff speed 89.1 kts). We assumed nominal
    cruise at 300 kts at 27.4Kft, an initial cruise
    weight (w4) 2645lbm and a cruise lift-to-drag
    ratio (LoDcr) of 22.5.

Concluding remarks
  • Our parametric models predict reasonable
    performance for a range of types, altitudes and
    subsonic speeds
  • Although approximate, they capture effects not
    included in traditional parametrics, e.g. RayAD
    equations 10.4-15.
  • - They can be used for pre-concept design studies
    until better data is available
  • The models are approximate and are valid only at
    subsonic speeds
  • The models do not capture temperature or RPM
    limits obvious in RayAD Appendix E plots
  • The models do the best job of predicting airflow
  • The model do the worst job of predicting HBPR and
    TBP performance at low-altitude and high-speeds.
  • Typically, these engines are not operated under
    such conditions and the errors have little
    practical effect
  • During conceptual design engine company models
    should be used

Expectations
  • You should now understand
  • Propulsion parametrics and parametric models
  • Where they come from
  • How they are used
  • The limits of their applicability

Homework (individual)
  • Select an AE261 spreadsheet program and make a
    copy of the engine worksheet to calculate
    uninstalled engine performance (IC, TBProp or
    TBFan as appropriate) for your air vehicle
    concept
  • 2. Using a balanced field length criteria for
    takeoff, size an engine or engine(s) for your air
    vehicle
  • Estimate HP or thrust
  • Estimate weight and size or volume
  • 3. Calculate uninstalled engine performance at
    one assumed air vehicle takeoff, cruise, loiter
    or dash (target ID) speeds
  • Use the engine worksheet to check your hand
    calculation. Use the spreadsheet to calculate
    performance at the other assumed flight
    conditions
  • 4. Compare the model outputs against data on real
    engines (AE261.Engine.database or Janes) and
    assess the results
  • 5. Estimate installation losses for your concept
    and explain your rationale
