Abstract:

This report presents the design of a basic single-spool turboshaft engine and the variations possible with this basic design. These variations cover engines with outputs of 60, 90, and 120 horsepower, recuperated and non- recuperated versions, along with direct drive and geared output speeds. The engine accessories include a starter, battery charging alternator, fuel control and integral lubrication system. The engine feature rapid replacement of static hot parts and turbine inspection. The report includes a complete analytical design analysis of the aerothermodynamic components, performance, rotating elements, static structure, accessory drives, reduction gearing and miscellaneous parts of the engine.
