Model TS 120 Turboshaft Engine Program. Volume I.

Abstract

The report, in four (4) volumes, is on the design and development of a simple cycle, fixed shaft turbine engine, designated the TS-120 turboshaft engine. The work performed, including compressor design and test rig development, gas generator hot section design and test rig development, and engine design and development testing is contained in this report. From its inception, the TS-120 engine was intended to be the nucleus of a family of Military Standard turboshaft engines for powering portable electrical generator sets in the range of 30, 60, 90KW. Because of the unavailability of a high speed direct drive alternator, the engine was designed incorporating a reduction gearbox to facilitate engine testing and make use of existing generators. Volume I of this report introduces the program and covers the studies, design, development and tests of the compressor, combustor and turbine and the engine as a whole. Conclusions and recommendations are included. (Author)
