@PaliwalWarrior , sorry bro.......... but I was wrong. I had taken it as a simple mathematics problem rather then going into details.
Kaveri has a bypass ratio of 0.16 or we could say that BPR of Kaveri is 0.16:1 i.e., for every 1 kg of air passing through the core, 160 gms of air is passing around the core and F404 with BPR of 0.27 means for every 1 kg of air through its core 270 gms of air passes around the core.
This is even more deadly!!!!
Stop this please, You dont know anything on maths , jet engine!!!
Explain how many grams of air fly into which ever part of jet engines you may fancy & regale us with your jet engine maths!!!
Please get out of this grocery shop weighing mentality & read up something serious on jet engines before fooling people here again!!!
In this Google era it is insane to post stuff like this,
"The
bypass ratio (BPR) of a turbofan
engineis the
ratio between the mass flow rate of air drawn through the fan disk that
bypasses the
engine core (un-combusted air) to the mass flow rate passing through the
engine core."
In plain English it means that
in low bypass ratio engines a higher percentage of the air that goes through the frontal fan disk is pushed through high pressure jet turbine blades,
In high bypass ratio engine, a lower percentage of the air that passes through the fan disk is pushed through high pressure jet turbine blades(core) ,
jet engines with very high bypass ratio work like propeller, i.e most of the thrust is derived from the fan action of the frontal fan disk , exactly like in older air screw powered planes
So in reality you are once again making things stand on their head !!
So after 80s jet engines branched into two different categories,
High bypass ratio jet engines with bypass around 8 & above were used for passenger planes ,
with most of the power derived from air screw propeller action
& a lesser portion from jet turbine thrust leading to higher fuel efficiency & lower throttle response, because most of the air doesn't pass through the jet turbine core , it is not possible to suddenly increase the fuel & transfer the combustion thermal energy into non core air flow,
Conversely military jet engines have low bypass below 0.5 or so
It enabled most of the fan sucked air to pas through jet core, so lower fuel efficiency & higher throttle response, since combusting extra fuel inside the core & after burner wil lead to higher thermal energy transfer on the very high percentage of air that passes through the core,
Kaveri is a step ahead actually, it can alter this bypass ratio for specific conditions like high temp, humid or low temp dry climatic condition & for take offs & close combat.
Also it improves fuel efficiency plus gives extra thrust with in shorter span of time with and a better throttle response which transfers into higher turn rates in close combat
