Research turbine for high temperature core engine application. 1: Cold-airoverall performance of solid scaled turbineA solid, half-scale model of a 50.8-cm (20-in) research turbine designed for a high temperature core engine application was investigated over a range of speeds and pressure ratios. The results of this test are presented. The effect of rotor blade twist was also investigated. At the design equivalent speed and specific work output, the total efficiency of the turbine with untwisted rotor blades was 87.1 percent; at the same pressure ratio the efficiency of the turbine with twisted rotor blades was 88.0 percent.
