JET PROPULSION
The driving forward of a body by means of jet of gas or fluid.
The reaction of high velocity
jet issuing from the nozzle
provides the necessary thrust.
2. A jet of water impinges a curved plate with a velocity of 20 m/s making an angle of
200 with the direction of motion of vane at inlet and leaves at 1300 to the direction of
motion at outlet. The vane is moving with a velocity of 10 m/s. Compute.
i) Vane angles, so that water enters and leaves without shock.
ii) Work done per unit mass flow rate
Problems:
Problems:
1. A jet of water 50 mm diameter strikes a flat plate held normal to the direction of jet.
Estimate the force exerted by the jet if
a. The plate is stationary
b. The plate is moving with a velocity of 1 m/s away from the jet along the line of jet.
The discharge through the nozzle is 76 liter per sec.
2. A 75 mm diameter jet having a velocity of 12 m/s impinges a smooth flat plate, the
normal of which is inclined at 600 to the axis of jet. Find the impact of jet on the plate
at right angles to the plate when the plate is stationery.
a. What will be the impact if the plate moves with a velocity of 6 m/s in the direction
of jet and away from it.
b. What will be the force if the plate moves towards the Jet.
Problems:
1. A jet of water of diameter 20mm strikes a 200mm X 200mm square plate of
uniform thickness with a velocity of 10 m/s at the centre of the plate which is
suspended Vertically by a hinge on its top horizontal edge. The weight of the plate is
98N. The jet strikes normal to the plate.
(i) What force must be applied at the lower edge of the plate so that plate is kept
vertical?
(ii) If the plate is allowed to deflect freely, what will be the inclination of the plate with
vertical due to the force exerted by jet water.
Problems:
1. A jet of water having a velocity of 35 m/s strikes a series of radial curved vanes
mounted on a wheel. The wheel has 200 rpm. The jet makes 200 with the tangent to
wheel at inlet and leaves the wheel with a velocity of 5 m/s at 1300 to tangent to the
wheel at outlet. The diameters of wheel are 1 m and 0.5 m. Find
i) Vane angles at inlet and outlet for radially outward flow turbine.
ii) Work done
iii) Efficiency of the system
