HOT CYCLE ROTOR DUCT CLOSURE VALVE SYSTEM

Abstract

A detailed study of various methods for changing the effective nozzle area of the hot cycle rotor system to provide acceptable single-engine operation are presented. Thermodynamic, aero dynamic, structural and economic considerations led to the selection of outboard duct closure valves mounted in both ducts adjacent to the blade tip cascade. A description of the mechanical design and operation is given, and the structural integrity is substantiated by a detailed stress analysis.
