Innovative Visual Modeling Environment for Turbine Engine Reverse Modeling Aid Program (TERMAP)

摘要

Report developed under SBIR contract for topic AF99-2O5. There is a need for an innovative Graphical User Interface (GUI), or Visual Modeling Environment, for the Turbine Engine Reverse Modeling Aid Program (TERMAP) which is used by DoD, NASA, and contractors for modeling gas turbine engine propulsion systems. The development of such a user-friendly, innovative GUI was undertaken during this Phase I by SRS Technologies. This Phase I SBIR contract has resulted:%in a user-friendly, Windows- based GUI which meets and exceeds the performance objectives. This report summarizes the Phase I results and software capabilities. Visual TERMAP can import existing TERMAP input files or create new engine cycle configurations using the drag and drop interface. Visual TERMAP automatically tracks station numbers and TERMAPTs Parameter Index Codes (PICs). Compressor and turbine maps can be scaled and plotted. Visual TERMAP also performs trade studies and graphs results using an integrated graphing program. Software deliverables include the Visual TERMAP software program.
