Arrange the steps of sizing a subsonic inlet in order:

1. Choose a capture area from the engine's mass flow demand

2. Establish the engine's airflow requirement across the envelope

3. Check spillage drag at off-design conditions

4. Shape the diffuser to deliver low Mach number at the fan face

Select the correct sequence.

  • A.1, 4, 2, 3
  • B.2, 1, 4, 3
  • C.1, 2, 4, 3
  • D.2, 4, 1, 3

Answer: B

The engine states its demand, the capture area follows, the diffuser then slows the flow to what the fan wants, and the off-design penalty is assessed last. Choosing an area before knowing the demand would be arbitrary.
