Turboprop Engine VU
Propeller (Reaction) Power Propeller work coefficient: • The work coefficient of a propeller depends on compressor pressure ratio and turbine pressure ratio. • The compressor pressure ratio and turbine pressure ratio are two independent design variables for a turboprop.
The total propulsive power generated by an ideal turboprop is given by: Power Generated by A Turboprop Define work coefficient Total thrust generated by turboprop

Requirements to REACH ORBIT • For a typical launch vehicle headed to an orbit, aerodynamic drag losses are in the order of 100 to 500 m/sec. • Gravitational losses are larger, generally ranging from 700 to 1200 m/sec depending on the shape of the trajectory to orbit. • By far the largest term is the equation for the space velocity increment. • The lowest altitude where a stable orbit can be maintained, is at an altitude of 185 km. • This requires an Orbital velocity approximately 7777 m/sec. • To reach this velocity from a Space Center, a rocket requires an ideal velocity increment of 9050 m/sec. • The velocity due to the rotation of the Earth is approximately 427 m/sec, assuming gravitational plus drag losses of 1700 m/sec. • A Hydrogen-Oxygen system with an effective average exhaust velocity (from sealevel to vacuum) of 4000 m/sec would require mri/ mrf = 9.7.
