| 内容記述 | Advanced design and testing techniques developed at NASA Lewis to achieve high efficiency in small turbomachines are described. Small radial and axial turbines and compressors were built for space power systems and associated studies at the Lewis Research Center. A six stage axial compressor of 3.5 inches diameter and axial turbines of 5 and 8.5 inches diameter were included. Radial turbines and compressors ranged from 3.5 to 6 inches. Topics discussed include maximum efficiency as a function of speed, the effect of compressibility on passage size, the use of quasi-orthogonals to calculate cross-channel velocity gradients, a design point velocity diagram study for axial turbines, and estimating off-design performance. Special turbine instruments and calibration procedures were developed to test compressors and turbines, to determine Reynolds and size number effects clearance, specific speed effects, and compressor performance. Laboratory tests conducted to study system operation and shaft and bearing motions are also reviewed. |
