Abstract:

A visit was undertaken in June 1988 to attend the 71st Symposium of the AGARD Propulsion and Energetics Panel PEP on Engine Condition Monitoring - Technology and Experience held in Quebec Canada and to visit selected industry, military and research facilities in Canada and USA. The latter visits were to discuss methods for assessing gas turbine performance when operating with and without faulty components. A total of 8 establishments were visited in Canada and USA. In the course of the visit an opportunity was taken to hold preliminary discussions on the establishment of Key Technical Areas KTA in the newly formed TTCP HTP-7. At the conclusion of the tour a visit was made to the Singapore Ministry of Defence and Singapore Aircraft Industries to discuss aspects of Performance Monitoring and the installation of the GE F404 in the Skyhawks of the Royal Singapore Air Force.
