1. 1. Study and Design of an Axial Fan

   University essay from KTH/Flygdynamik

   Author : Alexis Dorange; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The cooling system is a crucial part for helicopter operations. Withoutit, hovering flight could not be operated. The cooling system for the maingearbox of a helicopter is composed of radiators and a fan. A fan is anaerodynamic body and as such it can be improved in terms of aerodynamicefficiency. READ MORE

3. 2. Evaluation of time varying stresses in a Howden fan

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT)

   Author : Tim van Mierlo; Rafal Żywalewski; [2015]
   Keywords : Finite element analyses; Dynamic substructuring; Axial flow fan; Blade; Rotor dynamics; Centrifugal force;

   Abstract : In this work, the time varying stresses in a Howden axial flow fan are obtained by finite element analyses. Dynamic substructuring is used to obtain accurate values of the stresses in the threads of the blade shaft, the component which connects the blade with the hub. READ MORE

4. 3. Conceptual Design of a Supersonic Jet Engine

   University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

   Author : Joakim Kareliusson; Melker Nordqvist; [2014]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This thesis is a response to the request for proposal issued by a joint collaboration between the AIAA Foundation and ASME/IGTI as a student competition to design a new turbofan engine intended for a conceptual supersonic business jet expected to enter service in 2025. Due to the increasing competition in the aircraft industry and the more stringent environmental legislations the new engine is expected to provide a lower fuel burn than the current engine intended for the aircraft to increase the chances of commercial success.
