Design and Development Review of the T64 Turboprop/Turboshaft Engine

Author(s):  
Frederic F. Ehrich

The T64 is a turboshaft/turboprop aircraft engine under development by the Small Aircraft Engine Department of the author’s company for the U. S. Navy Bureau of Weapons. A summary is given of the basic design criteria for the engine as well as a brief description of the engine configuration and highlights of engine development experience. A summary of the engine configuration is given in Table 1.

Passivhaus or Passive House buildings are low-energy buildings in which the design is driven by quality and comfort, hence achieving acceptable levels of comfort through post-heating or post-cooling of fresh air. Additionally, Passivhaus building design follows the Passivhaus design criteria, as described in the Passive House Planning Package (PHPP). This article aims to introduce the Passivhaus background, development, and basic design principles. Finally, it also presents a brief description of the performance of Passivhaus buildings.

Well-being is an ephemeral condition in relation to the complex system of interconnected components changing from culture to culture and person to person together with time and space. Therefore, it is very important to investigate the intersections of architecture and humanities in order to understand how design can contribute to the way we build up well-being. The specific contribution of this chapter is the introduction of the well-being framework for interiors and its application to design process. The framework proposal, consisting of contextual, functional, psychological, social, ergonomic, aesthetic, and sensory requirements as basic design criteria, aims to support both theoretical and practical activities regarding well-being in all living environments. Since interior space is one of the most important determinants of our everyday experiences, its role in well-being as a conscious construct needs to be an important concern of spatial design.

Our objective was to develop basic design criteria for use in fabricating a functional chamber for a red meat carcass cleaning unit. Emphasis was placed on eliminating the doors. A model carcass cleaning chamber was constructed to test effects of selected design parameters on direction and velocity of airflow. Based on data from the tests using the model, a full-scale chamber with no doors was designed, fabricated, and installed in a commercial packing plant for testing. The air moves into the chamber at both the entrance and the exit. This movement of air into the chamber prevents water droplets entrained in the air from escaping into the slaughtering area and causing condensation on the walls and roof.

This paper aims at presenting an approach to structuring interactions within product, through a graph, for simulation purposes. This approach has been developed for specific needs on Simulation Lifecycle Management (SLM) dedicated to aircraft engine development. The paper also illustrates the implementation of this approach on a case study which concerns a compressor design.

The world’s first full-scale fluidized bed reactor co-disposal facility located at the Western Lake Superior Sanitary District’s (WLSSD) central waste-water treatment complex in Duluth, Minnesota, began its shakedown operation in the fall of 1979. The authors present herein basic design criteria, a system description, November 1979 system status, and areas of operational concern.

To Describe the development in France of small gas turbines of necessity confines one to the products of the Turbomeca Company. It is therefore not through lack of modesty that I speak of those engines which have been designed and built under my direction.After the Second World War our aims were quite ambitious. We envisaged the creation of jet engines up to 6000 kg (13200 lb) thrust, as well as the aircraft to suit. We soon realised that such ideas were far beyond the industrial and financial possibilities of the time.
