Abstract The preliminary gas turbine combustor design process uses a huge amount of empirical correlations to achieve more optimized designs. Combustion efficiency, in relation to the basic dimensions of the combustor, is one of the most critical performance parameters. In this study, semi-empirical correlations for combustion efficiencies are examined and correlation coefficients have been revised using an experimental air-blasted tubular combustor that uses JP8 kerosene aviation fuel. Besides, droplet diameter and effective evaporation constant parameters have been investigated for different operating conditions. In the study, it is observed that increased air velocity significantly improves the atomization process and decreases droplet diameters, while increasing the mass flow rate has a positive effect on the atomization—the relative air velocity in the air-blast atomizer increases and the fuel droplets become finer.

This technical paper collection includes presentations considering how fuel characteristics affect SI engine performance. The inclusion of alcohols in the fuel is also considered.

This specification covers a corrosion-resistant steel in the form of bars, wire, forgings, and forging stock.

The scope of this document is to provide a guidance of the common contamination types and their concentrations in order to size FTIS components and characterize its performance on generic commercial aircraft.

The purpose of this AIR is to provide a comprehensive description document that displays various examples of low pressure seals and wipers utilized within mechanical and electromechanical actuators. The document is intended as an overview for those specifying or designing actuators in order to compare existing solutions as reference for implementation.
