  4. 2. Conceptual Design of Propulsion Systems for Boundary Layer Ingestion

    Author : Sebastian Samuelsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; turbo-electric aircraft; performance modeling; Aviation; boundary layer ingestion; aircraft engine; conceptual design; propulsion integration;

    Abstract : To reduce the climate impact of aviation new aircraft and engine concepts as well as improved design methods are needed. In this thesis, two fronts are explored. The first concerns improved methods for the conceptual design of the engine. READ MORE

  5. 3. Surface Integrity of Broached Inconel 718 and Influence of Thermal Exposure

    Author : Zhe Chen; Ru Lin Peng; Johan Moverare; Sten Johansson; Magnus Hörnqvist; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Inconel 718 is a nickel-based superalloy that is extensively used as a disc material in gas turbine engines. The service life of gas turbine discs is normally governed by the modes of material degradation and fatigue failure since they work mostly at high temperatures and are subjected to cyclic mechanical loadings.

  6. 4. Turbomachinery in Biofuel Production

    Author : Martin Görling; Mats Westermark; Simon Harvey; Bengt Hylander; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bio-Methanol; Biomass; Gasification; Humidification; Hybrid Cycle; SNG; Chemical energy engineering; Kemisk energiteknik;

    Abstract : The aim for this study has been to evaluate the integration potential of turbo-machinery into the production processes of biofuels. The focus has been on bio-fuel produced via biomass gasification; mainly methanol and synthetic natural gas. The research has been divided into two parts; gas and steam turbine applications.

  7. 5. Surface Integrity and Fatigue Performance of Nickel-based Superalloys

    Author : Zhe Chen; Ru Peng; Johan Moverare; Sten Johansson; Manuel François; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Due to global warming, the demand for more efficient gas turbines has increased. A way to achieve this, is by increasing the operating temperature of the gas turbine. Therefore, nickel-based superalloys have been developed to withstand these extreme temperatures and loads, especially in the hot sections. READ MORE
