Auxiliary Power Units

Abstract

AiResearch Manufacturing Company, a division of the Garrett Corporation, is engaged in manufacturing a broad variety of products of the aerospace, energy, metals, transit, and marine industries. Products such as fuel controls and rotating accessories for gas turbines are produced by another Garrett division. Computerized analysis is employed to determine how well proposed seals will stand up to stress. For such analysis, AiResearch uses a computer program supplied by COSMIC known as VISCEL. Program saves engineers time in development of software and contributes to improved efficiency in seal analysis.
