Steady-state inlet temperature distortion effects on the stall limits of a J85-Ge-13 turbojet engine

The effects of circumferential and radial temperature distortions and combined temperature and pressure distortion on the performance of a J85-GE-13 turbojet engine were investigated. In terms of loss of compressor pressure ratio at stall, the most severe pattern of temperature distortion was hub radial while a circumferential pattern of diametrically opposed sectors was least severe. The effect of combined temperature and pressure distortion was dependent on the location of the high temperature and low pressure regions. The most serious stall pressure ratio losses occurred when these regions coincided.

Flight-measured inlet pressure transients accompanying engine compressor surges on the F-111A airplane

Two-F-111A airplanes were subjected to conditions that caused engine compressor surges and accompanying duct hammershock pressure transients. Flight speed ranged from Mach 0.71 to Mach 2.23, and altitude varied from approximately 3200 meters to 14,500 meters. A wide range of compressor pressure ratios was covered. Stabilized free-stream, engine, and duct conditions were established before each compressor surge. Dynamic pressure instrumentation at the compressor face and in the duct recorded the pressure transients associated with the surges. Hammershock pressures were analyzed with respect to the stabilized conditions preceding the compressor surges. The hammershock transients caused large pressure rises at the compressor face and in the duct. Hammershock pressure ratios at the compressor face were not affected by free-stream Mach number or altitude but were functions of engine variables, such as compressor pressure ratio. The maximum hammershock pressure ratio of approximately 1.83 occurred at a compressor pressure ratio of approximately 21.7.

Diagnostics of load vibrations at the inlet of a mechanism

The torque of a drive shaft in a magnetic recording device was studied by oscillographic recordings. Statistical evaluation of the dynamic spectral densities showed that the principle source of disturbing forces is loading in the drive shaft radial play.
