Preliminary Design Program Development for Aircraft Gas Turbine Combustors : Part 2 - Air Flow Distribution

Design and Experimental Analysis of Aircraft Air Distribution Systema

In this paper, the methodology of aircraft air distribution system has been analyzed theoretically and experimentally. To achieve that, ducting pressure loss and air flow throw gaspers calculations has been done for cabin ducts in according to exact location of individual air distribution system in the cabin. The length of gasper air flow was compared with the distance between gasper outlet and...

Developments of Gas Turbine Combustors for Air-Blown and Oxygen-Blown IGCC

A Multiple Inlet Swirler for Gas Turbine Combustors

The central recirculation zone (CRZ) in a swirl stabilized gas turbine combustor has a dominant effect on the fuel air mixing process and flame stability. Most of state of the art swirlers share one disadvantage; the fixed swirl number for the same swirler configuration. Thus, in a mathematical sense, Reynolds number becomes the sole parameter for controlling the flow characteristics inside the...

Design of Air Distribution System for Operation Theatre Using Flow Visualization Techniques to Improve Flow Characteristics

Operation Theatre (OT) is the most important area where precise controlled on indoor air quality is required because it is directly related to patient health and its recovery period. This work aims to study and visualize the airflow distribution of conventional flat air diffuser ventilation system and newly designed angular air ventilation system in OT. Angular Air Distribution (AAD) system is ...
