You have been asked to investigate the application of fluid linear momentum principles to nozzle systems and fluid turbi
You have been asked to investigate the application of fluid linear momentum principles to nozzle systems and fluid turbine operation To do this: Carry out investigations and observations into the effects of a jet of fluid on a surface: a. normal to the jet b. inclined to the jet You should research factors including momentum, mass flow rate and volumetric flow rate. In your report explain how your observations relate to Newton's second law and the rate of change of momentum. You should also: Evaluate how the principle of linear momentum and convergent nozzle systems are used in: c. a fire hose d. a rocket system A rocket has a total lift-off mass of 2x10 kg. 80% of the mass is the propellant fuel. The rocket consumes fuel at a rate of 5x10 kg/s and the exhaust gases have a constant velocity of 6 km/s. Calculate: e. the time for all the fuel to be used f. the thrust produced g. the net force on lift-off h. the initial acceleration • In addition, you should: Evaluate how fluid linear momentum principles are applied to i. the optimised operation of the Pelton impuls hydraulic turbine j. gas turbine engine A report covering the nature and analysis of fluid linear momentum principles and their application to the operation of rocket, nozzle systems and fluid turbines. supported by • images, . descriptions • mathematical modelling calculations evaluations All information and image sources should be referenced to an appropriate standard.
