Aerothermal study of high-pressure turbine rotor tips and casing at engine representative conditions with high-speed rotation

Abstract:

Modern aircraft engines operate at high turbine entry temperatures to increase the cycle efficiency. The combustors employ intricate cooling techniques, to survive such high temperatures, resulting in distorted temperature profiles at the combustor exit. Further, extensive platform cooling, upstream of the Nozzle Guide Vanes (NGVs), results in additional radial distortions in the stage inlet temperature profile. Consequently, a rotating High-Pressure (HP) turbine blade is subjected to high...
