Impact of Turbine Modulation on Variable-Cycle Engine Performance. Phase I and II Design, Fabrication and Rig Test. Part I.

Abstract

Part I of this report documents the analysis, design, and rig tests conducted in Phases 1 and 2. Part 2 reports the engine work and sea-level tests completed in Phase 3. Parts 3A and 3B document the altitude tests conducted in Phase 4. This program was conducted to determine the impact of variable geometry compressor, turbine, and exhaust-nozzle components on turbofan engine performance.
