1. 1. Evaluating the Performance of Propulsion System Elements in an Aerospace Company

   University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

   Author : David Fredouelle; [2023]
   Keywords : Turbomachinery; injector; test campaign; cryogenic; rocket engine; test bench; cold flow; Turbomaskin; injektor; testkampanj; kryogen; raketmotor; testbänk; kallt flöde;

   Abstract : This paper examines two examples of testing activities of sub-components of a 300kN methalox first-stage rocket engine developed by Pangea Aerospace, namely, theinjectors and the cryogenic pumps. One of the difficulties of these test campaignsis to evaluate the performances of these sub-components without using cryogenicpropellants and in conditions differing from flight conditions.

3. 2. Turbulence Intensity Measurements in a High-Pressure Gas Turbine Stage

   University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

   Author : Ettore Scami; [2022]
   Keywords : Turbulence Intensity; turbine; stage efficiency; grid; turbomachinery; length scales;

   Abstract : This Thesis work focused on the acquisition and evaluation of data on mean velocity, turbulence intensity and length scales obtained via hot wire measurements in a high pressure single-stage land-based turbine available at the Department of Heat and Power Technology in KTH. Turbulence was generated by the use of grids and twoprobes, upstream and downstream of the turbine stage, were used. READ MORE

4. 3. Costly Black-Box Optimization with GTperform at Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Tillämpad matematik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

   Author : André Malm; [2022]
   Keywords : Black-Box Optimization; GTperform; STG-800; Simulated Annealing; Gradient Descent;

   Abstract : The simulation program GTperform is used to estimate the machine settings from performance measurements for the gas turbine model STG-800 at Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery in Finspång, Sweden. By evaluating different settings within the program, the engineers try to estimate the one that generatesthe performance measurement. READ MORE

5. 4. Turbo For Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

   Author : Adam Hansson; Mohammed Abu Al-Soud; [2022]
   Keywords : Turbo; Fuel Cell; Centrifugal Compressor; Radial Turbine; Axial Turbine; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Turbo systems have long been implemented into vehicles to increase the specific power. Increasing the pressure for conventional vehicles decreases the mass of the engine and increases the efficiency. Conventional vehicles do however produce carbon dioxide emissions which have become an increasing issue that needs a solution. READ MORE

6. 5. Aerodynamic studies of the flutter behavior of a compressor jet engine : Establishment of 1D criteria for the appearance of flutter within low pressure compressors

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Author : Lucas Citoleux; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Turbojet compressors are subject to numerous vibration phenomena that limit their good operability. Among these different phenomena, flutter is a major concern during the study and design phase. This aeroelastic instability can have an impact on the correct operation of the compressor. READ MORE
