Year: 2025
Type: book-chapter
Abstract: The paper presents a study on the design of an inlet unit for testing the core engine of a gas turbine engine. The possibility of using classical configurations of stand inlet units is considered, efficiency losses of 0.8-1.6% of the compressor and full pressure recovery coefficient in the inlet unit of 0.992-0.976 using CFD modeling are determined. An alternative appearance of an inlet device with a measured section for engine gas generator testing, for which the coefficient of total pressure loss does not exceed 0.002, is designed; the influence of the compressor strout on the choice of the location of measuring means in the stand inlet unit is also considered.
