    WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF ENGINE DOES NOT USE ATMOSPHERIC AIR FOR COMBUSTION

    • A.

      ROCKET

    • B.

      PULSEJET

    • C.

      RAMJET

    Correct Answer
    A. ROCKET
    Explanation
    Rockets do not use atmospheric air for combustion because they carry their own oxidizer, usually in the form of liquid oxygen, which allows them to burn fuel in space where there is no air. Unlike pulsejets and ramjets, which rely on the intake of atmospheric air for combustion, rockets are self-contained and can operate in the vacuum of space.

    WHAT EFFECT DOES A DIVERGENT DUCT HAVE ON AIRFLOW

    • A.

      AN INCREASE IN PRESSURE AND DECREASE IN VELOCITY

    • B.

      AN INCREASE IN PRESSURE AND INCREASE IN VELOCITY

    • C.

      A DECRASE IN PRESSURE

    Correct Answer
    A. AN INCREASE IN PRESSURE AND DECREASE IN VELOCITY
    Explanation
    A divergent duct is designed to gradually increase the cross-sectional area of the airflow. As the airflow enters the divergent duct, the increase in area causes a decrease in velocity according to the principle of continuity. This decrease in velocity is accompanied by an increase in pressure, as stated by Bernoulli's principle. Therefore, the correct answer is that a divergent duct has the effect of increasing pressure and decreasing velocity of the airflow.

    • C.

      NEWTONS 3ER LAW

    Correct Answer
    A. NEWTONS 1ERS LAW
    Explanation
    Newton's 1st Law states that an object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and direction, unless acted upon by an external force. This law explains the concept of inertia, where objects tend to resist changes in their state of motion. It implies that if there is no net force acting on an object, it will either remain at rest or continue moving in a straight line at a constant velocity.

    • B.

      NEWTONS 2D LAW

    • C.

      NEWTONS 3RS LAW

    Correct Answer
    C. NEWTONS 3RS LAW
    Explanation
    Newton's 3rd Law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This means that when one object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts a force of equal magnitude but in the opposite direction on the first object. In other words, any force exerted on an object will result in a force of equal strength but in the opposite direction on the object that exerted the initial force. This law explains the concept of interaction between objects and is fundamental in understanding the principles of motion and force.

    IN AN AXIAL-FLOW ENGINE, BY WHAT MEANS IS HIGH-VELOCITY , LOW PRESSURE AIR CONVERTED TO LOW-VELOCITY, HIGH PRESSURE AIR

    • A.

      ACTION OF SINGLE INTAKE DIFFUSER

    • B.

      ACTION OF STATOR BLADES AT EACH STAGE OF COMPRESSION

    Correct Answer
    B. ACTION OF STATOR BLADES AT EACH STAGE OF COMPRESSION
    Explanation
    In an axial-flow engine, high-velocity, low-pressure air is converted to low-velocity, high-pressure air through the action of stator blades at each stage of compression. Stator blades are stationary blades that are placed between rotating blades (rotor blades) in the compressor section of the engine. As the high-velocity air passes through the stator blades, it is redirected and its velocity is reduced. This redirection and reduction in velocity cause an increase in pressure, resulting in the conversion of high-velocity, low-pressure air into low-velocity, high-pressure air.

    WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING IS NOT CONSIDER BY ENGINE MANUFACTURES AS CORRECTIVE ACTION FOR A FRONT END, LOW SPEED. HIGH TEMP STALL

    • A.

      INSTALLING A BLEED VALVE IN THE MIDDLE OF REAR PORTION OF THE COMPRESSOR SECTION

    • B.

      INCREASING COMPRESSOR LOAD THROUGH THE USE OF VARIABLE-AREA EXHAUST NOZZLES

    Correct Answer
    B. INCREASING COMPRESSOR LOAD THROUGH THE USE OF VARIABLE-AREA EXHAUST NOZZLES
    Explanation
    Increasing compressor load through the use of variable-area exhaust nozzles is not considered by engine manufacturers as a corrective action for a front-end, low-speed, high-temp stall. This is because increasing the compressor load can potentially exacerbate the stall condition and lead to further damage to the engine. Installing a bleed valve in the middle of the rear portion of the compressor section is a common corrective action to alleviate the stall condition by reducing the compressor load.

    Jet engines use both simplex and duplex fuel nozzles. Simplex fuel nozzles have a single fuel spray pattern, while duplex fuel nozzles have multiple fuel spray patterns. The choice between simplex and duplex fuel nozzles depends on the specific requirements of the jet engine and the desired fuel distribution. Simplex fuel nozzles are commonly used in smaller jet engines, while duplex fuel nozzles are used in larger engines to achieve better fuel atomization and more efficient combustion.
