T-55-L-714 Engine Development and Qualification. TIP Clearance Analysis

Abstract

The performance of the T55-L-714 engine has shown to be strongly influenced by gas turbine running tip clearance. In order to ensure both optimum steady state performance and to prevent rubs of the gas producer turbine upon rapid deceleration and acceleration, a steady state and transient tip clearance analysis has been conducted.
