Propulsive efficiency is defined as _____________(a) ratio of obtained thrust power to energy expanded(b) thrust used by compressed energy(c) aerodynamic efficiency(d) lift required to thrust required at each segmentThe question was asked during an interview.The doubt is from Propulsion topic in chapter Propulsion of Aircraft Design

Answer»

Correct ANSWER is (a) ratio of obtained thrust POWER to energy expanded

The explanation is: Propulsive efficiency is DEFINED as the ratio of obtained thrust power to the energy expanded. AERODYNAMIC efficiency is defined as lift to drag ratio. Aerodynamic efficiency is primarily consideration of aerodynamic design.
