TL;DR: In this paper, the full integration of two-dimensional streamline curvature component models with a low-fidelity cycle program is presented, along with the effect of three different intake lip geometry on the performance of a notional, two-spool, low-bypass ratio, military engine.

TL;DR: In this article, the performance characteristics of an isolated gas turbine engine component, resolved from a detailed, high-fidelity analysis, is transferred to an engine system analysis carried out at a lower level of resolution.

TL;DR: In this paper, a direct comparison of three well-established zooming strategies utilizing a two-dimensional streamline curvature component model is presented. But the results of the comparison are limited to the case where real component characteristics are not available.

TL;DR: The Streamline Curvature (SLC) software as discussed by the authors is a two-dimensional flow simulation software that can be used to analyze the flow inside a compressor in two dimensions.

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-dimensional, streamline curvature compressor software is used to simulate the characteristics of any compressor at several operating conditions and is subsequently used in the zero-dimensional cycle analysis to provide a more accurate, physics-based estimate of compressor performance under clean and distorted inlet conditions, replacing the default compressor maps.
