APPLICATION OF A POWDER LUBRICATION SYSTEM TO A GAS TURBINE ENGINE.

Abstract

The objective of this program is to provide a powder lubrication system for the J-69 turbine engine. This report discusses the initial testing of an unfired J-69 engine modified for powder lubrication. Also discussed are studies made of the powder lubricant metering and ejection systems, and heat transfer studies of the bearing test rig tested earlier in this program. (Author)
