2. 1. Design of an Experimental Facility for Investi- gating the Flow in a Low Pressure Turbine Exit Structure

   Author : Borja Rojo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Turbine Rear Frame; Turbine Exhaust Case; Experimental; Exit Guide Vane; Engine Exit Structure; Aerodynamics; Outlet Guide Vane; Gas Turbine; Wind Tunnel; Heat transfer.; CFD; Turbine Rear Structure;

   Abstract : This report presents the design of a turbine facility for investigating the flow in the EES located at Chalmers University of Technology. The EES is the structure located downstream of the LPT in a jet engine. In this rig, in order to generate realistic inlet boundary conditions for the EES, an LPT stage is located upstream of the EES.
