   Abstract : The Life Cycle Energy Optimisation (LCEO) methodology aims at finding a design solution that uses a minimum amount of cumulative energy demand over the different phases of the vehicle's life cycle, while complying with a set of functional constraints. This effectively balances trade-offs, and therewith avoids sub-optimal shifting between the energy demand for the cradle-to-production of materials, operation of the vehicle, and end-of-life phases.

4. 2. Preliminary Design Investigations for the Selection of Optimum Reaction Degree for 1st Stage of a High Pressure Gas Turbine

   Author : Hina Noor; Torsten Fransson; Konstantinos G. Kyprianidis; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; 1D design; aerodynamic design parameters; flow kinematic; thermodynamics; rotor inlet temperature; cooled turbine; reaction degree; flow coefficient; stage loading;

   Abstract : One-dimensional (1D) turbine design calculation phase requires a handful of input data and choice of design parameters to provide the blade flow path geometry along with the flow kinematics and thermodynamics properties at the blade mid-span. The choice of important aerodynamics design parameters namely reaction degree, nozzle guide vane NGV exit flow angle or flow coefficient and stage loading defines the mid-span flow velocity triangles.

5. 3. Modelling of unsteady aerodynamics for aircraft design

   Author : Christopher Jouannet; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : Aircraft Deisgn; Aerodynamic; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

   Abstract : This thesis present a simple mathematical prediction model for high angles of attack aerodynamics, including dynamic effects over delta wings, and an extension to full configuration. The model presented is intended for application in conceptual design and is extended to parameters identifications in preliminary design with validation against experimental data. READ MORE

6. 4. Numerical Investigation of the Aerodynamic Vibration Excitation of High-Pressure Turbine Rotors

   Author : Markus Jöcker; KTH; []
   Keywords : Aeroelasticity; Aerodynamics; Stator-Rotor Interaction; Excitation Mechanism; Unsteady Flow Computation; Forced Response; High Cycle Fatigue; Turbomachinery; Gas-Turbine; High-Pressure Turbine; Turbopump; CFD; Design;

   Abstract : The design parameters axial gap and stator count of highpressure turbine stages are evaluated numerically towards theirinfluence on the unsteady aerodynamic excitation of rotorblades. Of particular interest is if and how unsteadyaerodynamic considerations in the design could reduce the riskofhigh cycle fatigue (HCF) failures of the turbine rotor. READ MORE

7. 5. Reduction of Aerodynamic Forcing inTransonic Turbomachinery : Numerical Studies on Forcing Reduction Techniques

   Author : Florian Fruth; Torsten Fransson; Damian Vogt; Ronald Mailach; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Forced Response; Aerodynamic Forcing; Efficiency; Blade Count Ratio; Clocking;

   Abstract : Due to more and more aggressive designs in turbomachinery, assuring the structural integrity of its components has become challenging. Also influenced by this trend is blade design, where lighter and slimmer blades, in combination with higher loading, lead to an increased risk of failure, e.g. in the form of blade vibration.
