Learning Outcome:After successfully participating in the module, students have basic knowledge of the design and performance calculation of aero engines. You are able to work on given questions using engine-specific construction and modeling methods and to critically question both current and future scientific problems and answer them independently.
Contents:
  • Design of aero engines
  • Requirements and specialist areas in engine design
  • Design process, design rules and strength of materials
  • Annulus diagram, rotor dynamic design, internal air system, oilsystem and bearing chambers, radial gap behavior in compressors and turbines
  • Engine installation and suspension, equipment, devices, dressings
  • Introduction to thermodynamics, thermodynamic basics of cycle calculation, performance management (ratings) and regulation,
  • Advanced modeling capabilities - ways to increase accuracy
  • Basics of testing and analysis (sea level, altitude, compliance testing)
