What do you mean by overall pressure ratio?(a) Ratio of pressure at engine exhaust and inlet front face(b) Ratio of dynamic to normal pressure(c) Total pressure divided by stagnation pressure(d) Stagnation pressure divided by dynamic pressureI have been asked this question in a job interview.My doubt is from Propulsion topic in division Propulsion of Aircraft Design

Answer»
