  6. 14. Multimethod aerodynamic research of engine-realistic turbine rear structures

    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.

  7. 15. Aerodynamic Design and Experimental Investigation of Short Nacelles for Future Turbofan Engines

    Author : Vinícius Tavares Silva; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ultra-high-bypass turbofan; Computational Fluid Dynamics; powered nacelle.; Ultra-short nacelles; experimental; thrust-and-drag bookkeeping;

    Abstract : To achieve a higher propulsive efficiency, and hence reduced fuel burn and emissions, the next generation turbofan engines are expected to have higher bypass ratios and lower fan pressure ratios. However, the larger the bypass ratio, the larger becomes the fan and thus the nacelle. The result is an undesired increase in weight and nacelle drag. READ MORE
