A Final Report on the Design of a Cooling System for the Advanced Turbine Aerothermal Research Rig (ATARR).

Abstract

This document will serve as the final report for the ATARR turbine cooling system design effort which has been conducted at Calspan ATC. The material provided herein presents the cooling system requirements which have driven the design, and provides examples of systems used at other facilities to meet similar requirements. Two specific cooling options are described and a synopsis is given of the efforts that have led to the suggested design. Sufficient information is provided for the reader to elect either system and proceed with final design considerations and eventual construction.
