Ribbon burner simulation of T-700 turbine shroud for ceramic lined seals research

摘要

Experimental and analytical studies were conducted to determine the acceptability of a ribbon-burner simulation of engine conditions for testing ceramic-lined turbine tip shrouds. The calculated values reveal that the ribbon burner establishes at least as harsh a thermal environment as is present at any time within the turbine shroud. Comparisons were made with ceramic components in a turboshaft engine.
