Description:
The performance results, as well as a compressor-turbine match point study based on a particular mode of engine operation, are compared with those previously obtained with the same turbine having first-stator areas 70, 95.6, and 132 percent of design. Maximum efficiencies for all turbine configurations were high, on the order of 87 to 89 percent. The efficiencies obtained at the match points for the 87-, 95.6-, and 132-percent turbines were slightly lower. No match point for the 70-percent turbine was obtained because, with first-stator areas less than 75.5 percent of design, the turbine would develop insufficient work to drive the compressor at the match point.
