Abstract

This paper present the optimum operation of the Micro Gas Turbine Engine that is minimum specific fuel
consumption and maximum specific thrust. In the turbojet engine, the main operating variables are: compressor pressure
ratio and turbine inlet temperature. These variables affect the specific thrust and specific fuel consumption (SFC), which
represent the main performance parameters. The analytical results show that the specific thrust and specific fuel
consumption strongly depend on TIT and compressor pressure ratio (Pr). From the variation of TIT and Pr, the results
show that the optimum running line (ORL) give while the engine is running at optimum (TIT) and (Pr) for higher
performance.
