  1. 1. Meanline method for design and off-design turbine performance predictions

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Joel Sjödin; [2019]
    Keywords : Meanline program; space turbine; loss model; turbine predictions; early stage design; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Early designs are often based on rough estimations and assumptions. Such is also the case when designing space turbines that power rocket engine fuel pumps which generally have obscure performance and size requirements. Often times, this leads to unique, single-use designs. This complicates and restricts the amount of possible testing. READ MORE

  3. 2. Numerical Modelling of a Radial Inflow Turbine with and without Nozzle Ring at Design and Off-Design Conditions

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Felippo Valentini; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The design of a radial turbine working at peak efficiency over a wide range of operating conditions is nowadays an active topic of research, as this constitutes a target feature for applications on turbochargers. To this purpose many solutions have been suggested, including the use of devices for better flow guidance, namely the nozzle ring, which are reported to boost the performance of a radial turbine at both design and off-design points.

  4. 3. Aerodynamic design of a gas turbine rotor blade for the KTH test turbine

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Nicholas Anton; William Wiberg; [2013]
    Keywords : design; gas turbine; rotor blade; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The purpose of the thesis was to design a new rotor blade for the KTH test turbine according to present design guidelines for gas turbines manufactured at Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery in Finspång. Stage one of a real gas turbine was used as a reference for the aerodynamic design providing a starting point for the project. READ MORE
