   Author : Valentin Vikhorev; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; particle image velocimetry; vane lean; pressure taps; enginerealistic; engine-mount recess; European Union EU ; hot-wire anemometry; outlet guide vanes; oil-film visualization; multi-hole probe; turbine exhaust case; bump; turbine rear frame; computational fluid dynamics.; Clean Sky 2; experimental multimethod approach; Horizon 2020; EATEEM; turbine rear structure; low-pressure turbine;

   Abstract : Despite the significant advancements in aircraft engine technology over the past years, the aerodynamics of engine-realistic turbine rear structures (TRS) remain largely unexplored. The TRS, a structural and aerodynamic component situated downstream of the low-pressure turbine (LPT), plays a pivotal role in engine aerodynamic performance, deswirling the LPT flow to maximize the engine thrust.

6. 4. Aero Engine Intercooling

   Author : Xin Zhao; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; PIV; CFD; porous media; aero engine; pressure measurements; intercooling control; system performance; intercooler; variable flow path;

   Abstract : Intercooling has the potential to provide a shortcut to the next generation aero engines with higher bypass ratio (BPR), higher overall pressure ratio (OPR) and higher turbine inlet temperature (TIT) by lowering the high pressure compressor (HPC) delivery temperature. To be able to establish a systematic understanding of aero engine intercooling, the heat transfer and pressure loss characteristics of a given intercooler architecture need to be known in the parameter range anticipated for the engine optimization.

7. 5. 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.
