Abstract:
After a rigorous German education in the physical sciences, young Ludwig Wittgenstein entered Manchester University as an aeronautical engineering research student. There he devised and patented a novel aero-engine employing an airscrew propeller driven by blade tip-jets. Within the context of the growth of English aviation during the first half of the twentieth century (including the contributions of many Fellows of the Royal Society) and taking into account related aspects of his life, this paper examines an unfulfilled engineering aspiration. In enlarging upon what Wittgenstein might have accomplished during his stay at Manchester, it contrasts his invention with later comparable proven designs, albeit applied to hybrid rotorcraft. His engine employed centrifugal flow compression and arguably was a precursor of Sir Frank Whittle's gas turbine. In conclusion, reasons are given for Wittgenstein's departure from Manchester.

Abstract:
It is well known that spark ignition internal combustion engines for aeronautical applications operate within a specific temperature range to avoid structural damages, detonations and loss of efficiency of the combustion process. An accurate assessment of the cooling system performance is a crucial aspect in order to guarantee broad operating conditions of the engine. In this framework, the use of a Conjugate Heat Transfer method is a proper choice, since it allows to estimate both the heat fluxes between the engine walls and the cooling air and the temperature distribution along the outer wall surfaces of the engine, and to perform parametric analyses by varying the engine operating conditions. In this work, the air-cooling system of a 4-cylinder spark ignition engine, designed by CMD Engine Company for aeronautical applications, is analysed in order to evaluate the amount of the air mass flow rate to guarantee the heat transfer under full load operating conditions. A preliminary validation of the model is performed by comparing the results with available experimental data. A parametric study is also performed to assess the influence of the controlling parameters on the cooling system efficiency. This study is carried out by varying the inlet air mass flow rate from 1.0 kg/s to 1.5 kg/s and the temperature of the inner wall surfaces of the engine combustion chambers from 390 K to 430 K.

Abstract:
A hybrid methodology combining a detailed Large Eddy Simulation of a combustion chamber sector, an analytical propagation model of the extracted acoustic and entropy waves at the combustor exit through the turbine stages, and a far-field acoustic propagation through a variable exhaust temperature field was shown to predict far-field combustion noise from helicopter and aircraft propulsion systems accurately for the first time. For the single-stream turboshaft engine, the validation was achieved from engine core to the turbine exit. Propagation to the far field was then performed through a modeled axisymmetric jet. Its temperature modified the acoustic propagation of combustion noise significantly and a simple analytical model based on the Snell–Descarte law was shown to predict the directivity for axisymmetric single jet exhaust accurately. Good agreement with measured far-field spectra for all turboshaft-engine regimes below 2 kHz stresses that combustion noise is most likely the dominant noise source at low frequencies in such engines. For the more complex dual-stream turbofan engine, two regime computations showed that direct noise is mostly generated by the unsteady flame dynamics and the indirect combustion noise by the temperature stratification induced by the dilution holes in the combustion chamber, as found previously in the turboshaft case. However, in the turboengine, direct noise was found dominant at the combustor exit for the low power case and equivalent contributions of both combustion noise sources for the high power case. The propagation to the far-field was achieved through the temperature field provided by a Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes simulation. Good agreement with measured spectra was also found at low frequencies for the low power turboengine case. At high power, however, turboengine jet noise overcomes combustion noise at low frequencies.

Abstract:
This paper defines a methodology for the evaluation of the technical and economic performance of aeronautical engines through the upgrades introduced during its life. The CFM56 is a high-bypass turbofan engine. The variants share a common design, but the details are different. The fan and booster evolved over the different iterations of the engine, as did the compressor, combustor, and turbine sections. Maintenance consists of the activities carried out during the life cycle of an engine to ensure safe, reliable, and economic operation. Maintenance costs represent 20–25% of an airline’s operating costs, of which 35–40% refer to the engine. The changes in the performance parameters indicate the state of the engine in the medium to long term: for example, it is possible to detect blade fouling or data on vibrations, and highlight changes in the characteristic behavior of an engine. This work investigates the behavior of the performance parameters in the period prior to an engine development event: a comparison is made with the monitoring of engine vibrations. In the conclusions, a final expressive graph makes us aware of the significant progress, over the years, achieved with the methodology here presented.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTNowadays the aeronautical industry keeps strict quality standards in its dimensional specifications, mechanical properties and microstructural characteristics. Therefore, the involved manufacturing processes require keeping high standards. The nickel based superalloys are present in many components of the jet engines, being the Inconel 718MR superalloy the most common, making up to 50% of the jet engine. This is designed to resist high temperatures, corrosion and creep. The process of rotary forging is a manufacturing process that is currently under scientific and technological development in the aeronautical industry. An Avrami model coupled with a commercial FEM platform (DEFORMTM 3D) was developed to evaluate the average grain size, as a function of the working conditions at 980 °C and 1000 °C. The results provide a better understanding of the influence of temperature in the grain size evolution during the rotary forging process, compared with previous reports.

Abstract:
Au cours des dernières années, le transport aérien de passagers connaît un développement sans cesse croissant et continue ainsi d’accroire sa contribution aux émissions mondiale de CO2. Par conséquent, un effort commun entre les avionneurs est fait pour diminuer les émissions de CO2 et de polluants. Pour encourager cet effort, les réglementations deviennent de plus en plus drastiques en terme d'émissions et de polluants tels que le CO2, les NOx mais aussi le bruit. Ces nouvelles limitations sont à la fois définies à court et moyen-long termes pour inciter les motoristes à travailler sur les technologies de plus en plus efficientes.Pour concevoir des moteurs toujours plus performants tout en respectant ces réglementations à court terme, les motoristes travaillent sur l'optimisation de leurs technologies conventionnelles, en améliorant des leviers bien identifiés comme l'augmentation du taux de compression. Cependant, cette optimisation des turbomachines actuelles a déjà atteint un niveau de maturité très élevé. Il semble ainsi difficile de continuer indéfiniment leurs optimisations. Par conséquent, pour atteindre les objectifs à moyen-long terme, les motoristes sont dès aujourd'hui en train d'étudier des nouveaux systèmes propulsifs avancés comme les chambres de Combustion à Volume Constant (CVC) qui peuvent accroître le rendement thermique. Contrairement aux chambres de combustion traditionnelles, qui fonctionnent à flux continu, les chambres CVC opèrent de façon cyclique afin de créer un volume constant pendant la phase de combustion et libérer les gaz chauds dans les étages de turbines.Pendant cette thèse, une approche numérique permettant d'évaluer ce type de chambres est développée. Tout l'enjeu est de pouvoir étudier des chambre de combustion intégrant des parties mobiles, qui permettent de créer le volume constant dédié à la combustion tout en évitant les fuites à travers ces systèmes mobiles lors de l'élévation de la pression dans la chambre. Cette modélisation doit aussi prédire correctement les phases transitoires comme l'admission des gaz frais, qui pilote la phase de combustion. Cette étude utilise des objets immergés pour modéliser les parties mobiles. Les objectifs de cette thèse sont de rendre ces objets immergés imperméables et adapter la méthode aux différents modèles utilisés pour étudier les milieux réactifs tels que le modèle de combustion ECFM-LES ou encore l'injection liquide Lagrangienne utilisée pour résoudre l'injection du fuel.Dans cette étude, une nouvelle formulation est développée puis testée sur différents cas tests de plus en plus représentatifs des chambres CVC. Cette approche numérique est ensuite évaluée sur une chambre réel étudiée expérimentalement au laboratoire PPRIRME de Poitiers. Dans cette dernière étude, deux cas non réactifs permettent de comparer les évolutions de pression à deux endroits dans la dispositif expérimental, ainsi que les champs de vitesse au sein de la chambre de combustion, aux simulations réalisées. Pour ces cas complexes, l'utilisation des objets immergés permet de prédire les résultats expérimentaux à un coût attractif.Un des cas non réactif est ensuite carburé et allumé pour confronter l'évolution pression et les champs de vitesse dans la chambre de combustion des résultats numériques obtenus aux mesures expérimentales. L'approche numérique développée a permis d’enrichir les données expérimentales, d'analyser les variabilités cycle-à-cycle rencontrées au banc et d'identifier les leviers qui permettraient d'optimiser ce type d’architecture
Over the past few years, aircrafts have become a common means of transport, thus continuously increasing their contribution to global CO2 emissions. Consequently, there is a common effort between aircraft manufacturers to reduce CO2 and pollutant emissions. To encourage this effort, regulations are becoming more and more stringent on the emissions and pollutants like CO2, NOx and noise. These regulations are both defined in the short and medium-long terms to urge aircraft manufacturers to work on more and more efficient technologies.In order to design more efficient engines while respecting the short term objectives, engine manufacturers are working on the improvement of conventional architectures by using well-known levers like the increase of the Overall Pressure Ratio (OPR). However, the optimization of the present turbomachinery has already reached a high level of maturity and it seems difficult to continuously enhance their performances. Consequently, to reach the medium-long term objectives, engine manufacturers are working on new advanced propulsion systems such as the Constant Volume Combustion (CVC) chambers, which can increase the thermal efficiency of the system. Contrary to present turbomachinery which are burning fresh gases continuously, CVC chambers operate cyclically so as to create the constant vessel dedicated to the combustion phase and to expand the burnt gases into turbine stages.In this PhD thesis, a numerical approach is developed to allow the evaluation of these kind of combustors. The challenge is to be able to evaluate CVC chambers by taking into account the moving parts which create the constant volume and avoid mass leakages through these moving parts during the increase of the combustion chamber pressure when the combustion occurs. This approach also has to correctly predict unsteady phases like the intake, which directly controls the combustion process.These moving parts are modeled with a Lagrangian Immersed Boundary (LIB) method .The main goals of this thesis is to make the LIB as airtight as possible and to render this approach compatible with the different models which are adapted to analyse reactive flows such as the ECFM-LES combustion model or Lagrangian liquid injection, used for fuel sprays. In this study, a new formulation is developed and tested on several test cases from very simple ones to cases more representative of CVC chambers.Then, this approach is evaluated on a real chamber experimentally analysed in PPRIME laboratory in Poitiers. Two non-reactive operating points are used to compare the experimental pressure at two positions in the apparatus and the experimental velocity fields in the combustion chamber with the numerical results. In this complex configuration, the LIB method allows the prediction of the experimental results with a low CPU cost. As in the experiment, one non-reactive case is carburized and ignited to compare the measured pressure and the velocity fields in the combustion chamber with the simulations. The proposed numerical approach allows the data enhancement of the experiment and then the analysis of the cycle-to-cycle variability encountered during the experimental measurements. Last but not least, this method enables the identification of the different levers that could decrease the variability and then could improve operability of this type of combustors

Abstract:
Presented in this thesis is the development of a high-fidelity aerothermal model for GE T700 turboshaft engine. The model was constructed using thermodynamic relations governing change of flow properties across engine components, and by applying real component maps for the compressor and turbines as well as empirical relations for specific heats. Included in the model were bleed flows, turbine cooling and heat sink effects. Transient dynamics were modeled using inter-component volumes method in which mass imbalance between two engine components was used to calculate the inter-component pressure. This method allowed fast, high-accuracy and iteration-free calculation of engine states. Developed simulation model was successfully validated against previously published simulation results, and was applied in the simulation of inlet distortion and engine deterioration. Former included simulation of steady state and transient hot gas ingestion as well as transient decrease in the inlet total pressure. Engine deterioration simulations were performed for four different cases of component deterioration with parameters defining engine degradation taken from the literature. Real time capability of the model was achieved by applying time scaling of plenum volumes which allowed for larger simulation time steps at very little cost of numerical accuracy. Finally, T700 model was used to develop a generic model by replacing empirical relations for specific heats with temperature and FAR dependent curve fits, and scaling T700 turbine maps. Developed generic aerothermal model was applied to simulate steady state performance of the Lycoming T53 turboshaft engine.

Abstract:
Internal combustion engines are increasingly subject to ever more stringent and severe Euro-legislations about pollutants emissions in terms of nitrogen oxide, carbon monoxide, unburned hydrocarbons and soot. In last years, thanks to advanced after treatment systems and technological innovations, emission have been improved but, due to even higher costs and complexity of such systems and in a view of further emissions restrictions, advanced combustion methods leading to cleaner and improved efficiency combustion are under investigation. A possible path to follow in order to met requirements on lower emissions, is relative to so called low temperature combustion: a group of innovative combustion methods which by exploiting lean and premixed combustion decreases significantly flame temperature which is mainly responsible for nitrogen oxide production. This work of thesis focus on preliminary study, development and experimental testing of a low temperature combustion strategy, namely "gasoline direct compression ignition" also known as "GDCI".

Abstract:
Current research efforts in the areas of automotive control aim at developing new control algorithms so engine can work efficiently with different fuel compositions. Progressing in this direction, this thesis pioneers and researches novel control strategies to reduce the engine emissions gasses, Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Oxygen (O2), Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Nitric Oxide (NOx), while keeping optimum performance with unknown fuel mixtures. A two-zone engine combustion model is developed and thoroughly validated against the computational data from commercial engine simulation packages. The engine model is suited for the development and testing of control systems. The simulation uses the following fuel mixtures: isooctane (C8-H18), methanol (C1-H4-O1) and ethanol (C2-H6-O1). The results obtained provide better understanding of the control parameters, including fuel-to-air ratio, ignition timing, exhaust-valve timing and intake-valve timing. Moreover, the model facilitates control design. The novel engine controller is studied on the fuel composition as the additional parameter where such parameter has not been widely considered in engine control research. Efficient methodologies to estimate the original fuel composition by using the exhaust gas composition obtained from the engine are proposed and investigated. Two novel approaches based on feed-forward neural network and Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Interface System (ANFIS), respectively, are proposed. The portion of mixture for Isooctane-Methanol and Isooctane-Ethanol are effectively calculated. Moreover, results suggest that the feed-forward neural network outperforms the ANFIS approach and that the performance of the fuel estimator is stable in the continuous time process. Further in this research, a Multi-Input-Multi-Output (MIMO) engine control system is developed. The methodology used is a system identification employing a state-space model. In order to reduce the complexity of the state-space model, the developed AI fuel estimator is used to facilitate on the model reduction by feeding gains to controllers for the individual components. In addition, it uses the linear quadric regulator (LQR) method to find the closed-loop gain in the development of the closed-loop control system. The above techniques have been evaluated and results show that the controller is able to identify the minimum levels of the emission gases in terms of CO2, O2, CO and NOx in a continuously changing engine speed.

The commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software ANSYS Fluent is employed for the computations. While the effects of engines are included in the computations through simple inlet and outlet boundary conditions, the main and tail rotors are simulated by the Virtual Blade Model in a time-averaged fashion. Forward flight at four different advance ratios and hover in ground effect are studied. The temperature distribution around the tail boom is compared to available flight test data. Good agreement with the flight test data is observed.

Abstract:
The Department of Aeronautics at the United States Air Force Academy utilizes a closed-loop, two-dimensional turbine cascade wind tunnel to reinforce a learning-focused undergraduate thermo-propulsion sequence. While previous work presented in the literature outlined the Academy thermo-propulsion sequence and the contextual framework for instruction, this current paper addresses how the Academy turbine cascade facility is integrated into the aeronautical engineering course sequence. Cadets who concentrate in propulsion are to some extent prepared for each successive course through their contact with the cascade, and ultimately they graduate with an exposure to experimental research that enhances their grasp of gas turbine engine fundamentals. Initially, the cascade is used to reinforce airfoil theory to all cadets in the Fundamentals of Aeronautics course. Aeronautical engineering majors take this course during the first semester of their sophomore year. The next semester all aeronautical engineering majors take Introduction to Aero-thermodynamics. In this course, the closed-loop aspect of the cascade facility is used to reinforce concepts of work addition to the flow. Heat transfer is also discussed, using the heat exchanger that regulates test section temperature. Exposure to the cascade also prepares cadets for the ensuing Introduction to Propulsion and Aeronautics Laboratory courses, taken in the junior and senior year, respectively. In the propulsion course, cadets connect thermodynamic principles to component analysis. In the laboratory course, cadets work in pairs on propulsion projects sponsored by the Air Force Research Laboratory, including projects in the cascade wind tunnel. Individual cadets are selected from the cascade research teams for summer internships, working at an Air Force Research Laboratory turbine cascade tunnel. Ultimately, cadet experiences with the Academy turbine cascade help lay the foundation for a two-part senior propulsion capstone sequence in which cadets design a gas turbine engine starting with the overall cycle selection leading to component-level design. The turbine cascade also serves to integrate propulsion principles and fluid mechanics through a senior elective Computational Fluid Dynamics course. In this course, cadets may select a computational project related to the cascade. Cadets who complete the thermo-propulsion sequence graduate with a thorough understanding of turbine engine fundamentals from both conceptual and applied perspectives. Their exposure to the cascade facility is an important part of the process. An assessment of cadet learning is presented to validate the effectiveness of this integrated research-classroom approach.

Abstract:
This paper describes the application of a weight and cost-estimating methodology used in an undergraduate aircraft engine design course that is taught in concert with a companion course in airframe design. The two preliminary designs, one for the engine and the other for the airframe, must be integrated as subsystems within a system to satisfy the performance requirements of a given mission as outlined in a single “request for proposals”. In recent years, systems engineering management majors have been added to the design teams to work alongside the aeronautical engineering majors to analyze and report on costs, schedule, and technical risk factors in addition to the operational performance factors that have previously been the sole focus of the course. The teaming of technical management majors and aeronautical engineering majors has been driven by a heightened emphasis on system affordability. The cost-estimating methodology for gas turbine engines uses cycle parameters such as turbine rotor inlet temperature, overall pressure ratio, specific fuel consumption, level of technology, and engine dry weight as inputs. A methodology for estimating dry engine weight was developed which uses engine cycle parameters and fan face diameter as inputs in a volume analog scaling factor which was correlated against historical engine weight data. To tie all of the performance, weight, cost, and development time issues together, the paper presents an “analysis of alternatives” example that considers three different engine cycle alternatives. The design tools presented in this paper will provide a strong foundational understanding of how to systematically weigh and evaluate the important tradeoffs between aircraft turbofan engine performance, cost, schedule, and risk factors. Equipping students with the insight and ability to perform these multidisciplinary trade studies during the preliminary engine design process is this paper’s most important contribution.

Abstract:
This paper is intended to serve as a template for incorporating technical management majors into a traditional engineering design course. In 2002, the Secretary of the Air Force encouraged the USAF Academy to initiate a new interdisciplinary academic major related to systems engineering. This direction was given in an effort to help meet the Air Force’s growing need for “systems” minded officers to manage the development and acquisition of its ever more complex weapons systems. The curriculum for the new systems engineering management (SEM) major is related to the “engineering of large, complex systems and the integration of the many subsystems that comprise the larger system” and differs in the level of technical content from the traditional engineering major. The program allows emphasis in specific cadet-selected engineering tracks with additional course work in human systems, operations research, and program management. Specifically, this paper documents how individual SEM majors have been integrated into aeronautical engineering design teams within a senior level capstone course to complete the preliminary design of a gas turbine engine. As the Aeronautical engineering (AE) cadets performed the detailed engine design, the SEM cadets were responsible for tracking performance, cost, schedule, and technical risk. Internal and external student assessments indicate that this integration has been successful at exposing both the AE majors and the SEM majors to the benefits of “systems thinking” by giving all the opportunity to employ SE tools in the context of a realistic aircraft engine design project.
