Exhaust Gas Temperatue is an parameter where the hot gases’s temperature leave the gas turbine. Exhaust gas temperature margin is the difference between highest temperature at take off phase with redline on indicator (???????????? ???????????????????????? °????=???????????? ????????????????????????????−???????????? ???????????????? ????????????). EGTM is one of any factor to determine engine performance. A good perfomance of an engine when it has a big margin (EGTM), during operation of an engine the EGTM could decrease untill 0 (zero). So many factors could affect EGTM deteroration there are: distress hardware such as airfoil erosion, leak of an airseals, and increase of clearance between tip balde and shroud. Increase of clearance happens in high pressure compressor rotor clearance. In CFM56-7 have 9 stage(s) of high pressure compressor and each stage give the EGT Loses. The calculation of EGT Effect/Losses is actual celarance – minimum clearance x 1000 x EGT Effect °C, where actual clearance define by the substraction of outside diameter’s rotor with inside diameter’s shroud, minimum clearance define in the manual, 1000 is adjustment from mils/microinch to inch, and EGT Effect is temperature that define in the manual. The analysist had done with 6 (six) engine serial number and proceed by corelation that shown linkage between clearance and EGT Effect, the corelation is strong shown the result of corelation (r) is 0.994275999 or nearest 1.

This analytical study discusses the system aspects of active stability enhancement using mass flow injection in front of the rotor blade tip of a high pressure compressor. Tip injection is modeled as a recirculating bleed in a performance simulation of a commercial turbofan engine. A map correction procedure accounts for the changes in compressor characteristics caused by injection. The correction factors are derived from stage stacking calculations, which include a simple correlation for stability enhancement. The operational characteristic of the actively controlled engine is simulated in steady and transient states. The basic steady-state effect consists of a local change in mass flow and a local increase in gas temperature. This alters the component matching in the engine. The mechanism can be described by the compressor-to-turbine flow ratio and the injection temperature ratio. Both effects reduce the cycle efficiency resulting in an increased turbine temperature and fuel consumption at constant thrust. The negative performance impact becomes negligible if compressor recirculation is only employed at the transient part power and if valves remain closed at the steady-state operation. Detailed calculations show that engine handling requirements and temperature limits will still be met. Tip injection increases the high pressure compressor stability margin substantially during critical maneuvers. The proposed concept in combination with an adequate control logic offers promising benefits at transient operation, leading to an improvement potential for the overall engine performance.

Reducing costs and development times are two of the main challenges for aircraft engines manufacturers. Analysis shows that the main troubles encountered during the industrialization phase are due to choices made during the first steps, such as the preliminary design of the compressor throughflow (flowpath and velocity triangles). Therefore, constraints and needs from the later phases have to be taken into account as early as possible. A deterministic optimization method for automated compressor throughflow design has been developed to achieve these objectives, improving efficiency and surge margin while modifying the design parameters. Nevertheless, variability between the theoretical geometry and the actual one may occur because of the manufacturing process or the damages encountered during the engine life cycle. Depending on their magnitude, these differences can affect the engine performance. To consider these random phenomena from the design step, the deterministic optimization is coupled with a probabilistic approach, based on a robust design methodology which aims at guarantee the engine performance despite geometrical variability. This article deals with geometrical robustness. It presents a robust design methodology and introduces a capability function used to optimize the outputs of a compressor model while minimizing their standard deviation. The model has two kinds of inputs: the design factors, which are known by both designer and manufacturer, and the noise factors, that are just known by their mean value and their standard deviation. As robust design requires a large number of calculations, it is interesting to work with an approximated physical model such as a response surface, generated through the computation of a suitable design of experiments. This method has been successfully applied to the design of a Snecma Moteurs high-pressure compressor.

The prediction of fatigue life of components inside aircraft engines depends on the reliable numerical modelling of the temperature distribution during a mission cycle as this gives rise to life limiting thermal stresses. The transient temperature distribution is usually measured during an engine test and is then used to validate the numerical model, which in turn produces the basis for calculating the thermal stress levels. This paper describes the thermal analysis of a High Pressure Compressor Rotor (HPCR) and how the use of a 3-D Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) analysis improved the quantitative agreement between the measured and the predicted temperature profiles. The highly complex three-dimensional flow field within the compressor rotor was modelled by exploiting symmetry conditions and using a standard k-ε turbulence model. Results of the tangential, axial and radial velocity components as well as locations of peaks in turbulence kinetic energy were predicted to help identify the flow field inside the forward cavity of the rotor. Two ways of predicting internal re-circulating rates to the rim area are proposed. Finally, plots of predicted metal temperature profiles before and after the CFD-analysis are presented.

During the operation of a jet engine, deterioration will constantly reduce its performance. This results in an increase in specific fuel consumption (SFC) and exhaust gas temperature (EGT); the main characteristics to describe the efficiency of a jet engine. Thereby, the high pressure compressor (HPC) is particularly affected by deterioration. Multiple effects take place and decrease the efficiency of the HPC. Erosion is one of the main effects and leads to thinner or thicker leading- and trailing edges, thinner airfoils, a reduction of chord length and an increase in tip clearance. In addition, erosion and fouling may also lead to increased surface roughness on airfoils and endwalls. An additional parameter which is also dependent on the on-wing time are changes in the stagger angle of the different blade heights. The objective is to estimate the quantitative effect of the different wear mechanisms on the stage parameters, like throttle line and efficiency. Therefore, a geometry setup process is implemented to create HPC blade models with independent values of erosion. With these blades, CFD calculations based on realistic boundary conditions were carried out with the CFD solver ANSYS CFX. It could be proven that the deterioration of leading edge thickness has the major influence on stage performance, followed by the max. profile thickness and the stagger angle. The operational blade deterioration of leading edge thickness leads to an efficiency range of about 0.173 %. Moreover, the deterioration of stagger angle leads to an offset of the throttle lines towards higher or smaller loadings, depending on the direction of change.

Modern jet engines require very high cycle temperatures for efficient operation. In turn, cooling air is needed for the turbine, since the materials are not yet capable of taking these temperatures. Air is taken from the compressor for the purpose of cooling and turbine rim sealing, bypassing the main combustion circuit. Since this affects the efficiency of the engine in a negative manner, measures are taken to reduce the amount of air to an absolute minimum. These measures include the investigation of reducing pressure losses within the involved subsystems. One of these subsystems in the BR700 aeroengine series of Rolls-Royce is the vortex reducer device, which delivers bleed air to the secondary air system of the engine. The German government has set up a research project, aiming for an overall improvement of aeroengines. This program, Engine 3E, where 3E reflects Efficiency, Economy and Environment, concentrates on the main components of gas turbines. Programmes for the high pressure turbine and for the combustion chamber have been set up. The high pressure compressor has been identified as key component as well. A new 9-stage compressor is being developed at Rolls-Royce Deutschland to adress the respective needs. From the point of view of the secondary air system, the vortex reducer in this component plays a major role with respect to the efficient use of cooling and sealing air. Rolls-Royce Deutschland has performed CFD studies on the performance of different vortex reducer geometries, which currently are considered for incorporation into the future engine. The results of these investigations wil be converted into more simple design rules for proper reflection of the behaviour of this system for future designs. The paper presents the set up of the geometries, the applied boundary conditions as well as the final results. To tackle the difference between a high pressure compressor rig and a typical two-shaft engine, a dedicated investigation to assess the difference between a pure high pressure core without an internal shaft and a realistic high/low pressure shaft configuration has been carried out and is included in the paper. Recommendations to improve the design with respect to minimized pressure losses will be shown as well.

In a turbofan engine, the air is brought from the low to the high-pressure compressor through an intermediate compressor duct. Weight and design space limitations impel to its design as an S-shaped. Despite it, the intermediate duct has to guide the flow carefully to the high-pressure compressor without disturbances and flow separations hence, flow analysis within the duct has been attractive to the researchers ever since its inception. Consequently, a number of researchers and experimentalists from the aerospace industry could not keep themselves away from this research. Further demand for increasing by-pass ratio will change the shape and weight of the duct that uplift encourages them to continue research in this field. Innumerable studies related to S-shaped duct have proven that its performance depends on many factors like curvature, upstream compressor’s vortices, swirl, insertion of struts, geometrical aspects, Mach number and many more. The application of flow control devices, wall shape optimization techniques, and integrated concepts lead a better system performance and shorten the duct length.  This review paper is an endeavor to encapsulate all the above aspects and finally, it can be concluded that the intermediate duct is a key component to keep the overall weight and specific fuel consumption low. The shape and curvature of the duct significantly affect the pressure distortion. The wall static pressure distribution along the inner wall significantly higher than that of the outer wall. Duct pressure loss enhances with the aggressive design of duct, incursion of struts, thick inlet boundary layer and higher swirl at the inlet. Thus, one should focus on research areas for better aerodynamic effects of the above parameters which give duct design with optimum pressure loss and non-uniformity within the duct.
