The article contains the results of the metrological examination and research of the accuracy indicators of a method for diagnosing aircraft gas turbine engines of the D30KU/KP family using an ultra-high-frequency plasma complex. The results of metrological examination of a complete set of regulatory documents related to the diagnostic methodology, and an analysis of the state of metrological support are provided as well. During the metrological examination, the traceability of a measuring instrument (diagnostics) – an ultrahigh-frequency plasma complex – is evaluated based on the scintillation analyzer SAM-DT-01–2. To achieve that, local verification schemes from the state primary standards of the corresponding types of measurements were built. The implementation of measures to eliminate inconsistencies identified during metrological examination allows to reduce to an acceptable level the metrological risks of adverse situations when carrying out aviation activities in industry and air transportation. In addition, the probability of occurrence of errors of the first and second kind in the technological processes of tribodiagnostics of aviation gas turbine engines is reduced when implementing a method that has passed metrological examination in real practice. At the same time, the error in determining ratings and wear indicators provides acceptable accuracy indicators and sufficient reliability in assessing the technical condition of friction units of the D-30KP/KP2/KU/KU-154 aircraft engines.

The full mapping of a new gas turbine axial compressor at different speeds, IGV settings and pressure ratios (from choking to surge) has been performed utilizing a complete gas turbine with a suitable set of modifications. The main additions and modifications, necessary to transform the turbine into the Compressor Test Vehicle (CTV), are: - Compressor inlet throttling valve addition - Compressor discharge bleed valve addition - Turbine 1st stage nozzle area reduction - Starting engine change (increase in output and speed range). This method has been successfully employed on two different single shaft heavy-duty gas turbines (with a power rating of 11MW and 170 MW respectively). The paper describes the theoretical basis of this testing method and a specific application with the above mentioned 170 MW machine.

In this paper, it is shown that the use of probability‐statistic methods, especially at the early stage of diagnosing the technical condition of aviation gas turbine engines (GTE) when the flight information has fuzzy and limitation and uncertainty properties, is unfounded. Hence the efficiency of the use of Soft Computing methods‐fuzzy logic and neural networks at these diagnostic stages is considered. Training with high accuracy of fuzzy multiple linear and non‐linear models (fuzzy regression equations) which received on the statistical fuzzy data basis is made. Thus, for to make a more adequate model of the technical condition of GTE, the dynamics changes of skewness and kurtosis coefficients are analysed. Research of skewness and kurtasis coefficients shows, that the statistical distributions of the work parameters of GTE have a fuzzy character. Hence, consideration of fuzzy skewness and kurtosis coefficients is expedient. Investigation of the basic characteristics of the changes in the dynamics of the work parameters of GTE allows to draw the conclusion that it is necessary to use fuzzy statistical analysis during the preliminary identification of the technical condition of engines. Research of changes in the values of correlation coefficients also demonstrates their fuzzy character. Therefore for models choice the application of the Fuzzy Correlation Analysis results is offered. The fuzzy multiple correlation coefficient of fuzzy multiple regression is considered for checking the adequacy of models. At the information sufficiency is offered to use recurrent algorithm of aviation GTE technical condition identification (hard computing technology is used) on measurements of input and output parameters of the multiple linear and nonlinear generalised models at presence of noise measured (the new recursive Least Squares Method (LSM)). The system that is developed to monitor the condition of GTE provides stage‐by‐stage estimation of the technical condition of an engine. As an application of this technique, an estimation of the new operating aviation engine temperature condition was made.

THE PURPOSE. To study the issues of air intake system’s performance as the part of the gas turbines. To estimate the possibility of modeling different performance factors of air intake systems with numerical simulation methods. To develop the recommendations of setting up the grid and the numerical models for researches in air intake system’s performance and assessing the technical condition of elements of it. METHODS. The main method, which was used during the whole study, is computational fluid dynamics with usage of CAE-systems.RESULTS. During the study the recommendations for setting up the numerical model were developed. Such factors as grid model parameters, roughness scale, pressure drop in elements of air intake system and some more were investigated. The method for heat exchanger’s performance simulation were created for modeling the air temperature raising. CONCLUSION. The air intake system’s performance analysis becomes one of the actual topics for research because of the high demands of gas turbines to air, which is used in its annulus. The main part of these researches is in analysis of dangerous regimes of work (e.g. the icing process of annulus elements) or in assessing technical condition of air intake systems and its influence to the gas turbine as a whole. The developed method of numerical simulation allows to get the adequate results with low requirements for computational resources. Also this method allows to model the heat exchanger performance and study its defects’ influence to the performance of air intake system as a whole.
