Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present treatise reports on theoretical investigations and test-stand measurements which were carried out in the BMW Flugmotoren GMbH in developing the hollow blade for exhaust gas turbines. As an introduction the temperature variation and the stress on a turbine blade for a gas temperature of 900 degrees and circumferential velocities of 600 meters per second are discussed. The assumptions onthe heat transfer coefficients at the blade profile are supported by tests on an electrically heated blade model. The temperature distribution in the cross section of a blade Is thoroughly investigated and the temperature field determined for a special case. A method for calculation of the thermal stresses in turbine blades for a given temperature distribution is indicated. The effect of the heat radiation on the blade temperature also is dealt with. Test-stand experiments on turbine blades are evaluated, particularly with respect to temperature distribution in the cross section; maximum and minimum temperature in the cross section are ascertained. Finally, the application of the hollow blade for a stationary gas turbine is investigated. Starting from a setup for 550 C gas temperature the improvement of the thermal efficiency and the fuel consumption are considered as well as the increase of the useful power by use of high temperatures. The power required for blade cooling is taken into account.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gas turbines play an extremely important role in fulfilling a variety of power needs and are mainly used for power generation and propulsion applications. The performance and efficiency of gas turbine engines are to a large extent dependent on turbine rotor inlet temperatures: typically, the hotter the better. In gas turbines, the combustion temperature and the fuel efficiency are limited by the heat transfer properties of the turbine blades. However, in pushing the limits of hot gas temperatures while preventing the melting of blade components in high-pressure turbines, the use of effective cooling technologies is critical. Increasing the turbine inlet temperature also increases heat transferred to the turbine blade, and it is possible that the operating temperature could reach far above permissible metal temperature. In such cases, insufficient cooling of turbine blades results in excessive thermal stress on the blades causing premature blade failure. This may bring hazards to the engine's safe operation. Gas Turbine Blade Cooling, edited by Dr. Chaitanya D. Ghodke, offers 10 handpicked SAE International's technical papers, which identify key aspects of turbine blade cooling and help readers understand how this process can improve the performance of turbine hardware.

Download or read book Methods for Measuring Temperatures of Thin walled Gas turbine Blades written by Francis S. Stepka and published by . This book was released on 1956 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The accuracy and durability of two means for measuring the metal temperature of gas-turbine blades were investigated experimentally in a turbojet engine. Cemented thermocouples that could be placed in walls as thin 0.010 inch and commercial temperature-indicating paints were evaluated at turbine-inlet temperatures up to about 1650 degrees F and for centrifugal forces equivalent to about 42,000 times gravity. The cemented thermocouples operated satisfactorily. The temperature-indicating paints were neither as accurate nor as durable as the cemented thermocouples.

Download or read book Procedure for Calculating Turbine Blade Temperatures and Comparison of Calculated with Observed Values for Two Stationary Air cooled Blades written by W. Byron Brown and published by . This book was released on 1952 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Local and average blade temperatures were calculated for two stationary air-cooled turbine blades with 10 tubes and 13 fins forming the internal heat-transfer surfaces. These temperatures were calculated using previously published NACA temperature-distribution equations and the most recent theories for determining heat-transfer coefficients, including for the first time the allowance for effects of variable wall temperature on gas-to-blade heat-transfer coefficients at the leading and trailing sections of turbine blades. Comparison of calculated and experimental blade temperatures, for gas temperatures of 300° and 1000°F, resulted in good agreement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proceedings of a symposium held in Berlin in March 1996, drawing together practical expertise in measurement techniques, with typical applications ranging from in situ measurements of strain and rotation on small specimens through notched specimens and single crystal up to turbine blade shaped samples and full scale component testing. The symposium also highlighted new techniques such as speckle interferometry and image analysis.

Download or read book Heat Transfer Measurements and Predictions on a Power Generation Gas Turbine Blade written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Detailed heat transfer measurements and predictions are given for a power generation turbine rotor with 129 deg of nominal turning and an axial chord of 137 mm. Data were obtained for a set of four exit Reynolds numbers comprised of the design point of 628,000, -20%, +20%, and +40%. Three ideal exit pressure ratios were examined including the design point of 1.378, -10%, and +10%. Inlet incidence angles of 0 deg and +/-2 deg were also examined. Measurements were made in a linear cascade with highly three-dimensional blade passage flows that resulted from the high flow turning and thick inlet boundary layers. Inlet turbulence was generated with a blown square bar grid. The purpose of the work is the extension of three-dimensional predictive modeling capability for airfoil external heat transfer to engine specific conditions including blade shape, Reynolds numbers, and Mach numbers. Data were obtained by a steady-state technique using a thin-foil heater wrapped around a low thermal conductivity blade. Surface temperatures were measured using calibrated liquid crystals. The results show the effects of strong secondary vortical flows, laminar-to-turbulent transition, and also show good detail in the stagnation region.

This book was released on 1957 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analysis has been made to determine the effect of chord size on the weight and cooling characteristics of shell-supported, air-cooled gas-turbine blades. In uncooled turbines with solid blades, the general practice has been to design turbines with high aspect ratio (small blade chord) to achieve substantial turbine weight reduction. With air-cooled blades, this study shows that turbine blade weight is affected to a much smaller degree by the size of the blade chord.

This book was released on 1956 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A water-cooled turbine was fabricated and tested to determine the effect of a connecting passage at the turbine rotor blade tip between a radial coolant passage 0.10 inch in diameter (length-diameter ratio = 25.5) and radial coolant passages in the legnth-diameter range of 5.1 to 20.4. Coolant flow through the connecting passage is induced by free-convection forces in the radial passages.
