Performance Prediction and Simulation of Gas Turbine Engine Operation (La presision des performances et la simulation du fonctionnement des turbomoteurs)

Abstract

A Technical Team of the NATO RTO has created a manual on aircraft gas turbine simulation, ranging from applications to latest methodology of modelling techniques. Application is from design to operation and maintenance. Twenty two examples of models are reviewed, including educational examples and completed engine models. Present computer platforms in use for such models are reviewed, and an outlook on development is given. Executable models are included. On the theoretical side recent and advanced developments of the modelling of components are included. A survey of model users and a glossary are provided. The manual aims at increasing the use and the value of engine computer simulations in NATO Nations and NATO's design and use of engines.
