Goals and Technologies for Tomorrow's Gas Turbines.

Abstract

The objective of this program is to investigate control approaches for improving the performance of gas turbine engines, with special emphasis on gas turbine compressors and combustors. The presentations at the workshop were delivered by leading experts from government, industry and universities. The objectives of these presentations and the discussions were to bring into better focus: (1) Problems that adversely affect the performance and cost of operation of gas turbines; and (2) Present and future technologies, especially control approaches, that could significantly improve aircraft performance and reduce their life cycle cost.
