| Abstract | An accurate and comprehensive method for calculating the design-point performance of turbojet and turbofan engines is described in this report. Analyses of the component processes that comprise a cycle are developed in detail from fundamental thermodynamic relations to the actual equations programmed for the computer.
The structure and coding of the FORTRAN II computer programme are outlined, and complete source listings are included as an appendix. Sufficiently detailed instructions regarding input-output techniques and programme execution are given to enable cycle studies to be carried out by those without intimate knowledge of the computer or the programme. Machine requirements for this particular programme are an IBM 1620 digital computer equipped with automatic divide and floating point hardware, 40,000 digit core storage memory, and punched card input and output devices. |
