The velocity (\(V\)) of an aircraft engine, such as the CFM56-3, can be calculated using the formula:
– \(V\) is the velocity of the fluid (air or exhaust gases) passing through the engine, typically measured in meters per second (m/s).
– \(\dot{m}\) is the mass flow rate of air or exhaust gases passing through the engine, typically measured in kilograms per second (kg/s).
– \(\rho\) (rho) is the density of the fluid (air or exhaust gases), typically measured in kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³).
– \(A\) is the cross-sectional area through which the fluid flows, typically measured in square meters (m²).
