Download or read book Ceramic Gas Turbine Design and Test Experience written by Mark Van Roode and published by American Society of Mechanical Engineers. This book was released on 2002 with total page 744 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book summarizes the history and current status of the development of gas turbine engines and ancillary equipment using ceramic hot section components. Specifically, the book focuses on the evolution of component and engine designs, and the demonstration of design concepts through rig and engine testing of the ceramic gas turbine programs in the United States, Japan, Western Europe, and the countries of the former Soviet Union (primarily Russia). The 33 chapters cover ceramic gas turbine design in small gas turbines for automotive and cogeneration applications, midsize industrial and larger utility gas turbines, and aircraft and aeroderivative applications. Almost all of the book chapters have been prepared by technical personnel who are intimately involved in the development and demonstration of the ceramic gas turbine designs at their companies. The book will be of interest to engineering and management personnel at turbomachinery equipment manufacturers, development and fabrication personnel at suppliers of ceramic materials and components, researchers in government and private laboratories, teaching staff and students at technical colleges and universities, and personnel involved in planning and monitoring technology development programs. The theme emphasized throughout the book are the "lessons learned" from almost 40 years of ceramic gas turbine design and test experience. Learning directly from the experience of the researchers that took the ceramic gas turbine through the concept, preliminary, and detail design phases, while following the iterative design-test process cycles, is a unique way of becoming quickly familiar with the design challenges and solutions for using ceramics in gas turbine equipment. The book also amply demonstrates the hurdles that had to be ov

Download or read book Ceramic Materials and Components for Engines written by Jürgen G. Heinrich and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-11-21 with total page 678 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several ceramic parts have already proven their suitability for serial application in automobile engines in very impressive ways, especially in Japan, the USA and in Germany. However, there is still a lack of economical quality assurance concepts. Recently, a new generation of ceramic components, for the use in energy, transportation and environment systems, has been developed. The efforts are more and more system oriented in this field. The only possibility to manage this complex issue in the future will be interdisciplinary cooperation. Chemists, physicists, material scientists, process engineers, mechanical engineers and engine manufacturers will have to cooperate in a more intensive way than ever before. The R&D activities are still concentrating on gas turbines and reciprocating engines, but also on brakes, bearings, fuel cells, batteries, filters, membranes, sensors and actuators as well as on shaping and cutting tools for low expense machining of ceramic components. This book summarizes the scientific papers of the 7th International Symposium "Ceramic Materials and Components for Engines". Some of the most fascinating new applications of ceramic meterials in energy, transportation and environment systems are presented. The proceedings shall lead to new ideas for interdisciplinary activities in the future.

Download or read book Ceramics Science and Technology Volume 2 written by Ralf Riedel and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-02-10 with total page 888 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although ceramics have been known to mankind literally for millennia, research has never ceased. Apart from the classic uses as a bulk material in pottery, construction, and decoration, the latter half of the twentieth century saw an explosive growth of application fields, such as electrical and thermal insulators, wear-resistant bearings, surface coatings, lightweight armour, or aerospace materials. In addition to plain, hard solids, modern ceramics come in many new guises such as fabrics, ultrathin films, microstructures and hybrid composites. Built on the solid foundations laid down by the 20-volume series Materials Science and Technology, Ceramics Science and Technology picks out this exciting material class and illuminates it from all sides. Materials scientists, engineers, chemists, biochemists, physicists and medical researchers alike will find this work a treasure trove for a wide range of ceramics knowledge from theory and fundamentals to practical approaches and problem solutions.

Book excerpt: In the second year of a five-year Department of Energy (DOE) funded program, the Advanced Turbine Technology Applications Project (ATTAP) pushed ceramic automotive gas turbine technology state-of-the-art forward in: ceramic materials assessment and characterization; ceramic impact damage assessment; ceramic combustor evaluation; turbine inlet particle separator development; impact-tolerant turbine designs; net-shape ceramic component fabrication. Materials characterization progressed from specimens to cut-up components. Impact damage threshold velocities were measured, using graphite projectiles against specimens and full-size rotors. Lean-burn ceramic combustor evaluations included ignition and carbon formation tests with DF-2, JP-4, and ethanol fuels. A third-generation ceramic turbine inlet particle separator demonstrated 97.5-percent effectiveness against rotor-damaging graphite particles. Improved ceramic component design capabilities are providing lower-stress components for incorporation into the critical hot flow path. Component fabrication development focussed on net-shape forming techniques, using Taguchi experiments. ATTAP is funded by DOE and administered by NASA under Contract DEN3-335.

Book excerpt: At the Institute for Thermal Turbomachinery (ITS), University of Karlsruhe, detailed theoretical and experimental studies concerning ceramic gas turbine components have been performed. For the analysis of the reliability of ceramic components by finite element calculations, the numerical code CERITS has been developed, which follows a strategy similar to that suggested by Gyekenyesi. CERITS determines the failure probability of ceramic components with reference to volumetric flaws. Different fracture criteria can be considered. CERITS is coupled to the finite element code ADINA, which facilitates the prediction of the required temperature and stress distributions. The procedure is demonstrated utilizing gas turbine combustor components.
