Recent studies have highlighted the detrimental effects of surface roughness on gas turbine compressors. For instance, one study examined how both uniform and non-uniform surface roughness can ...

The high-pressure compressor at the DLR Institute of Propulsion Technology in Göttingen is used as the drive system for the continuous operation of the Next Generation Turbine Test Facility (NG-Turb) ...

In a turbojet, a compressor compresses air. Fuel is added in a combustor and ignited, and the expanding exhaust drives a turbine that in turn drives the compressor since both are attached to the ...

[Igor] is posting a lot of his build process on YouTube and Instagram, including heat treating the compressor stages with a blowtorch. This is an amazing project, and even if this tiny turbine ...

the inter compressor duct and the radial compressor test bed, we measure various gas turbine components, from the determination of their key aerodynamic parameters and characteristic fields to the ...
