As "interns" at Textron Aviation, we were tasked with creating an engineering model of a Cessna Caravan turboprop aircraft engine and analyzing it using the Brayton Power Cycle. In addition, there were two objectives: to utilize the Brayton Power Cycle model to maximize thermal efficiency to maximize flight time while maintaining the current horsepower, and maximize horsepower to enable heavier supply shipments while maintaining the current thermal efficiency.
