Abstract:

A cursory design study of the gas generator involving the preliminary design and analysis of a family of axial compressors was conducted. Each axial compressor was designed to be capable of match with advanced centrifugal technology. The minimum overall axial-centrifugal design pressure ratio for each compressor configuration was 161. The engine performance using the characteristics of the compressor designs was evaluated and an optimum gas generator configuration was selected. The axial compressor for the optimum gas generator configuration was detail designed for test rig evaluation. This axial compressor has two stages and a 3.01 design pressure ratio. The design flow rate is 5.0 pound-per-second and the inlet tip radius is 2.72 inches.
