PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF A PROPULSION SYSTEM
Zhang Jing
1989, 4(1): 11-16,87.
Abstract:
Performance analysis programs of a propulsion system are established and recommended as tools for estimating installation penalties. The performance parameters such as inlet capture area, inlet pressure recovery, inlet drag, nozzle gross thrust coefficient, nozzle/afterbody drag, installed thrust and specific fuel consumption can be obtained on condition that the uninstalled engine performance is matched with the inlet/nozzle internal and external performances. The influences of design parameters and operation conditions on the propulsion performance are also discussed. Finally, an aircraft/propulsion system integrated program has been worked out which can optimize the engine cycle parameters. The numerical results obtained show that the installation penalties are 20% to 30% at the identical flight conditions and throttling settings. Therefore it is very important to reduce the installation penal-tiesand to reach the optimal integrated propulsion performance.

Wu Zizhong, Shang Yi
1989, 4(1): 17-20,88.
Abstract:
Analyzing the concept and the function of the ratio of rotation speed difference in a twin-spool turbojet engine indicates that the ratio has an effect on the surge margins of the high and low pressure compressors and the match between the speed of high pressure compressor and the inlet gas temperature. It is proposed how to adjust the ratio of rotation speed difference reasonably. The results of the adjustments made by us are shown in good agreement with the trial run data. In addition, the effects of the ratio on the thrust, specific fuel consumption, speed of high pressure compressor and turbine inlet gas temperature are also considered.

Peng Ying, Fan Zuomi
1989, 4(1): 21-24,88.
Abstract:
The new gasdynamics functions with variable specific heat proposed in this paper take Mach number as independent variable. The four existing methods, namely the thermodynamics method, two kinds of conventional gasdynamics functions with variable specific heat and another kind of new gasdynamics functions with variable specific heat are compared with the presented method in solving thermo dynamic processes with variable specific heat. It is shown that the proposed new method is the most convenient.
A STUDY ON GH169 CRACK PROPAGATION UNDER CREEP-FATIGUE INTERACTION
Yan Li, Jiang Wenglong, Zhou Hongfan
1989, 4(1): 25-29,89.
Abstract:
As a new technique of crack detection at high temperatures, Reversing DC Electric Potential Method is used to study the crack propagation behaviours of aeroengine turbine disk material GH169 under creep-fatigue interaction at 650 C and at different hold-times. The fracture surfaces has examined with a scanning electron microscope. The experimental results indicate that the life prediction model by hyperbolic sine function is superior to the life prediction model by Paris formulation in correlativity with experimental data and predictability at the crack initiation propagation. Moreover, the former model is more convenient in application. It has been found that the crack propagation ratio obtained in the case of gradually increasing loading is smaller than that resulted from one-time loading.

EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH ON 3D TURBULENT GAS-PARTICLE FLOWS IN A COMBUSTOR OF CO-FLOW JET WITH LARGE VELOCITY DIFFERENCE
Li Rongxian, Zhao Huiquan, Huang Xiaoqing, Yin Taiqing, Pan Min. Zhou Lixing, Zhou Lixing
1989, 4(1): 33-36,89-90.
Abstract:
The time-averaged and root-mean-square fluctuation velocities of gas and particle phases and particle mass flux distributions have been measured by a 2-dimen-sional laser Doppler velocimeter combined with a sampling probe in a combustor of co-flow jets with large velocity difference. The results show large velocity slip between gas and particle phases. The gas-phase flow has astrong reverse flow in the near-axial region, while particles keep their forward motion almost everywhere, even in the strongly reverse flow region. The particle mass flux distributions measured have their maximum values in the near-axial reverse flow region. Presence of high-velocity jets remarkably enhances particle mixing. All these facts reveal the mechanism of flame stabilization and combustion intensification in the combustor of co-flow jets with large velocity difference. The four peaks of gas turbulence intensity observed in experiments demonstrate that the turbulence is caused by large velocity gradient resulted from sudden expansion and high velocity jets.Particle turbulence intensity has the similar behaviour as gas one,but the former is not always smaller than the latter. This means that the classical Hinze-Tchen's theory of particle following gas motion must be reexamined.
A STUDY ON EXIT RADIAL TEMPERATURE PROFILE OF 2D EXPERIMENTAL COMBUSTOR
Li Jibao, Jing Rushan
1989, 4(1): 37-40,90.
Abstract:
The exit radial temperature profiles formed by four configurations of dilution hole design have been studied experimentally on a two-dimensional experimental combustor. According to the results the effect of different configurations of dilution hole design on combustor exit radial temperature profile shows certain regularity. A semi-empirical and semi-analytical model has been developed for predicting the exit temperature profile of gas turbine combustor.The model can predict the effect of change in dilution zone design or combustion operating conditions on the variation of combustor exit radial temperature profile based on exit temperatures meas-sured before change. The comparison of the predictions with the measurements shows excellent agreement. The model provides a quantitative design tool for adjustment of temperature profile of gas turbine combustor.

EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF SUDDEN IMBALANCE RESPONSE ON A FLEXIBLE ROTOR SYSTEM WITH SQUEEZE-FILM DAMPER
Fu Caigao, Li Xifan
1989, 4(1): 67-69,93.
Abstract:
An experimental method is used to investigate suddenly applied imbalance responses of a flexible rotor with an uncentralized squeeze-film damper. The results show that the unstable transient process in this system is very short, and only after a few cycles the system recovers to steady state on new vibration level. The squeeze-film damper system has a limited capability of sudden subjection to the imbalance load. The limits depend mainly on the oil-film clearances of the damper. This work will be helpful for selecting squeeze-film parameters and experimental method of suddenly applied imbalance.

1989, 4(1): 73-75,94.
Abstract:
The atomizing process in atomizing channel has been investigated by means of pulse laser.

1989, 4(1): 97-104.
Abstract:
Based on the perturbation equation of the Navier-Stokes equation and the instability analysis of strongly nonlinear flow, a set of new control equations is presented featuring the interaction between dissipation and dispersion of turbulence. Three extra terms representing respectively the effects of extra strains, rotation and dispersion on the turbulent stresses introduced into the momentum equation. The defects of the original k-e modelart removed mainly by introducing new soerce terms. This modified k-i model has advantages of simplicity, self-consistency and clarity of physics It is able to handle complex flows and provides new perspectives for looking at a diversity cf turbulence probiems, such as intermuttency, coherent structvires, amsotropy , turbulent energy inversion and the cut-off of turbulence spectra.
