One of the major issues in multifunction radars is time resource allocation to maximize the radar’s ability. If jet engine modulation (JEM) is more efficiently performed in an insufficient dwell-time environment, the remaining time can be allocated for other tasks. This study presents a novel automatic algorithm for estimating the jet engine blade number of insufficient JEM signals. We employed a harmonic selection rule and a modified empirical mode decomposition (EMD) with an adaptive low-pass filtering. For a refined autocorrelation waveform, the analysis focuses on a desirable combination of intrinsic mode functions derived from the modified EMD. The approach is significant because it enables reliable estimation despite the insufficient JEM signal. Also, the proposed algorithm is innovative because it uses only the time-domain method, not the frequency-domain method. The application is expected to enhance the efficiency of radar resource management.

ABSTRACTIn the aligned Ni-MC eutectic alloys being developed for jet engine blade applications, the fibers are considered to be Tac, Tic, etc. In fact, these fibers will contain Cr, Mo, W and possibly other elements as substitutions for the “M” constituent, and often will not be stoichiometric. Quantitative chemical analysis of fibers is difficult because of their size. However, lattice parameter measurements can be used to learn much a out the carbide chemistry and stoichiometry. Results will be described in detail for fibers extracted from simple Ni-TaC, Ni,Cr-TaC and Ni,Cr,AI-Tac systems. In addition, experiments on mixed (Ta,V)C and (Ta,Ti)C carbides will be discussed. Carbide lattice parameters can be understood in terms of the free energies of formation of the various carbides.

An analytical model of bladed disk vibration is used to calculate the statistical variations in blade amplitudes that can occur in mistuned turbomachinery blading. The results provide a basis for evaluating alternative strategies for instrumenting the stage. This approach is illustrated by applying it to an unshrouded fan stage. It is found for this stage that the best strategy is to instrument blades that have frequencies near the tuned system frequency. A procedure is proposed for establishing how gages should be allocated from stage to stage throughout the engine.
