Abstract:
Numerical experiments are carried out to investigate the tone noise radiated from a turbofan engine inlet under conditions at which the relative flow past the rotor tip is supersonic. Under these conditions, the inlet tone noise is generated by the upstream-propagating rotor-locked shock wave field. The spatial evolution of this shock system is studied numerically for flows through two basic hard-walled configurations: a slender nacelle with large throat area and a thick nacelle with reduced throat area. With the flight Mach number set to 0.25, the spatial evolution of the acoustic power throu

In this paper, a preliminary exploration and research about the adaptive control law has been carried on for the turbofan engine with inlet pressure distortion. First, a real-time dynamic component-based model which contains the inlet distortion effects was established. Then, we select a single neuron PID controller with adaptive parameters to complete the dynamic acceleration process. The results illustrate that the single neuron control algorithm with gain adaptive has strong robustness, self-learning and anti-jamming capability and the performance of a turbofan engine can be effectively imp

This article presents a study on common design challenges of large and small turbofans. Turbofan engines powering large transport aircraft have demonstrated much different design objectives than business-jet turbofans including thrust, range, mission type, development cost, unit price, maintainability standards, and production quantities. Prolific use of ‘thermal barrier coating’ has helped turbine designers compensate for the inability to distribute a large quantity of small diameter film holes over the turbine blade surface.

In conventional turbofan aero-engine designs, the effective way of improvement of engine efficiency is through the increasing of overall pressure ratio and improving of combustor inlet gas temperature, but the further incresement of compressor overall pressor ratio is constricted by high pressure compressor outlet allowed temperature. The improvement of combustor outlet temperature is limited by turbine allowed inlet temperature during take-off and climbing.

Abstract:
Inlet flow non-uniformity, commonly known as inflow distortion, has been a long-standing problem in the history of gas turbine engines. Distortion can be present in the form of total pressure, total temperature or inflow incidence or any combinations of these. The search for better and robust performance requires engines that can sustain a large amount of inlet distortion without considerable loss in the thrust. In the present paper, the effect of total pressure distortion on a single-stage compressor and low bypass ratio fans are studied. Distortion near hub and tip in the form of step radial

Abstract:
Significant effort in the current technological development of aircraft is aimed at improving engine efficiency, while reducing fuel burn, emissions, and noise levels. One way to achieve these is to better integrate airframe and propulsion system. Tighter integration, however, may also cause adverse effects to the flow entering the engines, such as total pressure, total temperature, and swirl distortions. Swirl distortions are angular non-uniformities in the flow that may alter the functioning of specific components of the turbomachinery systems. To investigate the physics involved in the inge

Next generation aircraft design focuses on highly integrated airframe/engine architectures that exploit advantages in system level efficiency and performance. One such design concept incorporates boundary layer ingestion which locates the turbofan engine inlet near enough to the lifting surface of the aircraft skin that the boundary layer is ingested and reenergized. This process reduces overall aircraft drag and associated required thrust, resulting in fuel savings and decreased emissions; however, boundary layer ingestion also creates unique challenges for the turbofan engines operating in

Inlet distortion is an important consideration in fan performance. Distortion can be caused through flight conditions and airframe-engine interfaces. The focus of this paper is a series of high-fidelity time accurate Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations of a multistage fan. These investigate distortion transfer and generation as well as the underlying flow physics of these phenomena under different operating conditions. The simulations are performed on the full annulus of a 3 stage fan. The code used to carry out these simulations is a modified version of OVERFLOW 2.2 developed as

Abstract:
Abstract Designing a turbofan to operate in distorted inlet conditions is an issue of growing interest. In such conditions however, fan design can be computationally challenging. Indeed, subject to neither axi-symmetrical nor periodic inlet conditions, computations must be carried out throughout the whole circumferential domain i.e. 360°. Besides, the classical CFD approach implies the use of URANS computations so as to capture the distortion transfer across the fan stage. Eventually, computations are too onerous to be used in design loops. In this context, this paper presents a methodology to
