Full text
Abstract:
This thesis studies the historic encounter between United States Navy airship K-74 and Nazi submarine U-134 in World War II. The Battle of the Atlantic is examined through case study of this one U-boat and its voyage. In all things except her fight with the American blimp, the patrol was perfectly typical. Looked at from start to finish, both her reports and the reports of the Allies encountered, many realities of the war can be studied. U-134 sailed to attack shipping between Florida and Cuba. She was challenged by the attack of United States Navy airship K-74 over the Florida Straits. It is the only documented instance of battle between two such combatants in history. That merits attention. Thesis finding disprove historian William Eliot Morison’s contention that the K-74 airship bombs were not dropped and did not damage the U-boat. Study of this U-boat and its antagonist broadens our understanding of the Battle of the Atlantic. It is a contribution to our knowledge of military, naval, aviation, and local history.

Abstract:
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited.<br>This research describes and analyzes a United States Navy Satellite Communications (SATCOM) performance monitoring model in providing status information to a network monitoring console to support naval operations. The environment is characterized by potentially adverse conditions that affect satellite performance. Current SATCOM systems are unable to provide performance information to the network's performance monitor because they are not Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) enabled and not integrated into the routable network. A network monitoring model defined by sense, decide, and act is central to this study. It represents enhanced monitoring by the subscriber station's monitor console for naval shipboard operations. This model delivers operational and RF environmental information to the SNMP MIB environment so that commonly used SNMP agents can request and send information for sending proper messages to the network's performance monitoring system. The proposed solution is explored through analysis of existing monitoring models together with observations of a tactical networking field experiment, in which equipment at the edge of the network and subscriber's SATCOM terminal is monitored for gathering critical performance details.

&lt;p&gt;In 1992, the U.S. Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) initiated an effort with the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) and the U. S. Navy (Navy) to develop new high-performance steels (HPS) for bridges. The driving force for this project was the need to develop improved higher strength, improved weldability, higher toughness steels to improve the overall quality and fabricability of steels used in bridges in the United States. It was furthermore established that such steels should be "weathering". By this is meant the ability to perform without painting under normal atmospheric conditions.&lt;/p&gt;

Full text
Abstract:
A mechanical start system has been developed to start the Ship’s Service Gas Turbine Generators (SSGTG) on board U.S. naval destroyers. The current starting system uses either stored high pressure air or bleed air from another running turbine. The U.S. Navy has reviewed the high pressure air system and found it to be a costly system for both ship construction and maintenance. As a result, the Navy is requiring an alternative starting method that will replace high pressure air. It should be noted that any alternative that introduces compressed air to start the SSGTG depends on the start air regulating assembly and the pneumatic starter. The Redundant Independent Mechanical Start System (RIMSS) consists of an Allison Model 250 turboshaft engine mounted above the SSGTG main reduction gearbox. The turboshaft power take off is connected to the pinion shaft of the reduction gearbox by means of a parallel shaft auxiliary transfer gearbox. The transfer gearbox connection to the reduction gearbox replaces the pneumatic starter adapter pad but provides a means to also connect the pneumatic starter. As a result, the pinion shaft can be driven either pneumatically by the air turbine or mechanically by the Model 250 engine. This provides an alternative starting mode which is totally independent of the present means of starting. This will increase the reliability and availability of the SSGTG since it can still be started even if the pressure regulator or the pneumatic starter is not functional. This system has undergone testing at the Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division facility in Philadelphia.

Abstract:
Two primary topics are addressed in this paper: 1. A brief record of the evolution of U. S. Navy (USN) gas turbine qualification and testing requirements that helped produce the successful engines now in service and 2. Examination of these requirements in light of current and projected defense budgets resulting from changes in the world over the past twenty-five years. The paper proposes changes in the current methods the USN employs in qualifying its gas turbines for surface ship applications. The proposed alternate methods consider commercial testing and service experience as well as testing based on MIL-E-17341 requirements. Finally, the marine gas turbine community is invited to begin a dialogue on the feasibility of these alternate methods.

Full text
Abstract:
The U. S. Navy uses Rolls-Royce gas turbines for ship service power on the DDG-51 class destroyer and the CG-47 class cruiser. Both engines have duplex thermocouples (T/Cs) and redundant T/C harnesses for turbine temperature monitoring and control. One harness provides an average of all the installed T/Cs, while the other provides the full authority digital control (FADC) with an individual signal from each. The legacy FADC algorithm allows up to four T/Cs to be out of average on the individual harness. Any additional T/C failures will cause the control to ignore the entire individual harness and rely on the averaging harness alone. This logic has inadvertently led to multiple over-temp conditions and subsequent engine removals. A change to control logic has been developed that aims to prevent these over-temp scenarios and is currently being introduced to the fleet. This paper will discuss in depth the cause of the over-temp, the examination of the control logic and the correction that is designed to prevent it from recurring.

In ASME 1988 International Gas Turbine and Aeroengine Congress and Exposition. American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 1988. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/88-gt-129.

Full text
Abstract:
Within the U. S., the pollutant emissions at Navy and Air Force airbases are not regulated by civil law. However, there is a desire to be a good neighbor to the local population. On the other hand, military engine test facilities are designated as ground emission sources which are subject to civil air quality regulations. Both situations contribute to a Navy and Air Force requirement for the generation of air quality scenarios, which in turn requires ready access to engine emissions data. A considerable body of emissions data has been collected for U. S. military aircraft engines over the last twenty years. However, this data is not readily accessible, because it is distributed in a variety of technical publications, and is not presented in a consistent format. Therefore the Navy, with Air Force cooperation, has sponsored a program to develop an engine emissions database system tailored to their requirements, for use on a microcomputer. The program was conducted by Northern Research and Engineering Corporation. The resulting database contains all of the available emissions data, as well as background information on each engine model and the conditions for each test. All of the unclassified operational engine models of the Navy and Air Force are listed, whether or not emissions data are available. When emissions data is not available for a particular model, but there is a similar engine model whose data can reasonably be substituted, this is identified. The system provides an easy and versatile means of accessing the available emissions data. In general, the computerized database approach can increase the value of many types of experimental data.

Full text
Abstract:
Five years after the introduction of gas turbine propulsion in major U. S. Navy combatants, the engineering training pipeline, populated with cross-rates primarily from the existing machinist, engineman, and electrical ratings, consisted of a series of contractor developed block courses operationally centered around the propulsion and electrical control consoles. The rapid introduction of new ships in the late seventies and eighties required an accelerated training pipeline and the use of mostly apprentice candidates directly from recruitment. This increased need, the recognition in the fleet that existing training was not providing system knowledge, and the construction of a gas turbine training hot plant precipitated the development of a new training curriculum. Course development was derived from documentation which dictates plant operation: the equipment/system design; the Preventive Maintenance System (PMS); the Engineering Operating Sequencing System (EOSS); Fleet commander engineering management programs; and the Ships’ Manning Document (SMD). Using a disciplined approach, essential student performance objectives were defined and necessary learning objectives developed from the above documentation. The scope of the course encompassed the “cradle to grave” concept from apprentice training through journeyman and supervisor, and necessitated incremental and refresher training throughout the career of the gas turbine mechanic and electrician.

Full text
Abstract:
WR-21 is an intercooled and recuperated (ICR) gas turbine engine being developed by the U. S. Navy (USN) with contributions from the Royal Navy and the French Navy. A key component of the WR-21 engine is the recuperator used to recover waste heat from engine exhaust gas. The recuperator is being designed and fabricated by AlliedSignal Aerospace Company under subcontract to Northrop Grumman Marine Services, the prime contractor for the WR-21 gas turbine engine. One of the most challenging developmental items for the WR-21 engine has proven to be the recuperator. This paper discusses the development of the recuperator, including the advanced development (AD) recuperator which failed after a few hours of operation, the limited operating unit (LOU) recuperator which has supported much of the WR-21 engine development testing and the engineering development model (EDM) recuperator which will be used for a 3000 hour engine endurance test. Included is an overview of USN technical requirements for the recuperator and a review of operating experience with the AD and LOU recuperators. Failure modes that have been experienced are discussed in detail, including root cause evaluations and design modifications. Steps taken to extend the life of the LOU recuperator are discussed. In addition, testing (both single core and full size recuperator) and analytical models that have been used to improve the design and reliability of the recuperator are addressed.
