I read this article at Wartsila website which enlightened me that Gas turbines are comprised of three primary sections mounted on the same shaft: the compressor, the combustor and the turbine. The compressor can be either axial flow or centrifugal flow. Axial flow compressors are more common in power generation because they have higher flow rates and efficiencies. The acceleration of the air through the rotating blades and diffusion by the stators increases the pressure and reduces the volume
Abstract Introduction In AIR India jet shop they deals with the V2500 and CFM 56-5B jet engines these engines are widely used in A320 series of Boeing airplanes .In JEOC complete overhauling, maintenance and repairing of these engines take place at various assemblies and sub assemblies. The two terms being used in aerospace industry are Power Plant & Engine. The difference between the two is that the Engine without the accessories is called a Power Plant. Description regarding
supercharging is to increase the increase the amount of air intake in an engine by making use of a compressor. This compressor is also called a supercharger. A supercharger works by increasing the pressure or density of air supplied to an engine, which allows for burning of more fuel per cycle by the engine because of the increased oxygen with the increased amount of air being supplied to the engine. The compressor takes in the air from the atmosphere at atmospheric pressure, and if the carburetor is connected
These turbines are connected to the compressor and also the fan. So basically when turbines rotate, the compressor and the fan also rotate. What happens is that the airflow coming from the combustion chamber makes the turbines rotate and as the turbines rotate, they also make the fan and the compressor spin. Finally the gases exit through the nozzle. So a turbofan gets some of its thrust from the core of the engine while some of its thrust from the fan. The ratio of the air that goes around the
numerical methods were used to solve the gas turbine cascade flow field in recent years. In most of these studies, the quasi-three dimensional Navier-Stokes analysis is used. On the other hand, in some studies the flow fields were experimentally tested. Sheets of sandpaper with different equivalent sand-grain roughness heights have been used by researchers to produce roughness on surface of gas turbine blades placed in a wind tunnel and applying flow conditions of their case. 1.1 Experimental work Yun et
AERONAUTICAL PROPULSION SYSTEMS This report is an investigation into the evolution and mechanical functionality of aeronautical propulsion systems, from the early attempts at propulsion to modern propulsion system such as propeller, internal combustion engine, ramjet engine and gas turbine. As this report will focus of aeronautical propulsion systems, rocket propulsion systems are almost exclusively involved in astronautics and will not be discussed. As an engineer will have to decide the best
the other is grounded through the metal of the plug, and both form the part of the secondary circuit of an induction system. The principal type of high-tension ignition now commonly used is the battery-and-coil system. The current from the battery flows through the low- tension coil and magnetizes the iron core. When this circuit is opened at the distributor points by the interrupter cam, a transient high-frequency current is produced in the primary coil with the assistance of the condenser. This

SUBMITTED BY: Akanksha Rawat 7MAE5Y ASET, Amity University ACKNOWLEDGEMENT It is indeed a great pleasure for me to present this Summer Training Report on Delhi Metro Rail Corporation as a part of the curriculum of the B.TECH Mechanical and Automation Engineering I take this golden opportunity to thank all my mentors at DMRC who with their support And venerated guidance made this training a real
arrangements: 1. Counter flows induced draft. 2. Counter flow forced draft. 3. Cross flow induced draft. [pic] ➢ In the counter flow induced draft design, hot water enters at the top, while the air is introduced at the bottom and exits at the top. Both forced and induced draft fans are used. ➢ In cross flow induced draft towers, the water enters at the top and passes over the fill. The air, however, is introduced at the side either on one side which is single-flow tower or opposite sides
