How to add Combustion efficiency
The code is calculating HOF of fuel to calculate the FAR. But generally the LHV of fuel is used in cycle calculation, and for adding combustion efficiency we simply multiply the LHV value to eff. So now the real combustor the fuel adds LHV*eff amount of enthalpy per Kg.
But in this case as the enthalpy is being balanced between compressor inlet and combustor vitiated flow to calculate the FAR. I am not able to formulate the efficiency addition to combustor. In this code nowhere there comes an expression for enthalpy added by fuel. So how can I add the combustion efficiency property here.
