An engine has mass flow of 16 unit and bleed mass flow of 0.32 unit. Find the thrust loss due to the bleed air.(a) 4%(b) 6.98%(c) 100.78%(d) 21%The question was asked in a national level competition.My doubt stems from Propulsion topic in division Propulsion of Aircraft Design

Answer»

Right ANSWER is (a) 4%

Easy explanation: Since, BLEED correction factor is not MENTIONED, we will consider it as 2. Hence, C = 2.

% Thrust loss = C*(bleed mass FLOW/engine mass flow)*100

= 2*(0.32/16)*100 = 4%.
