Test Turbine
The test turbine is an important part of our experimental work as it allows aerodynamic studies in a turbomachine-typical environment. The turbine is driven by cold air from one of our air supply system and can be configured with a maximum of 3 turbine stages.
Research focus:
- Performance tests of turbine stages
- Efficiency measurements and detailed investigation of interstage flow parameters
- Partial admission flow investigations
- Investigations of aeromechanical phenomenon (forced response) during the partial admission flow
- Purge in high pressure turbine stage
