Re: homework- steadimath example
"Lawson, Dave" <dlawson@ball.com> wrote a massive missive [snipped] on
calculating the voumetric air flow for our turbo analysis of the week.
My question is: Where in this calculation is the back pressure from the turbo
taken into account. I would expect this to affect effective volumetric
efficiency, in a manner that would require recursive calculation. That is, the
calculated flow for a given back pressure would equal the flow that the turbine
would support for those conditions, given that turbine and compressor are
running at the same rpm. Turbine maps anyone?
