Journal ArticleDOI
Sealing in Turbomachinery
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an overview of turbomachinery sealing to control clearances, including characteristics of gas and steam turbine sealing applications and environments, benefits of sealing, types of standard static and dynamics seals, advanced seal designs, as well as life and limitations issues.
Turbine Engine Clearance Control Systems: Current Practices and Future Directions
TL;DR: In this article, the cause and effect of gas turbine blade tip seal wear and current clearance control practices are reviewed. And the approaches under investigation at GRC are presented, as well as the results of the investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-pressure-turbine clearance control systems: Current practices and future directions
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of aero-gas-turbine engine high-pressure turbine performance degradation and the mechanisms that promote these losses are presented, along with specifications for next-generation engine clearance control systems.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Turbine Engine Clearance Control Systems: Current Practices and Future Directions
TL;DR: Improved blade tip sealing in the high pressure compressor (HPC) and high pressure turbine (HPT) can provide dramatic reductions in specific fuel consumption (SFC), time-on-wing, compressor stall margin, and engine efficiency as well as increased payload and mission range capabilities as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Test Rig for Evaluating Active Turbine Blade Tip Clearance Control Concepts
TL;DR: In this article, a first generation mechanically actuated active clearance control system for turbine blade tip clearance management is presented along with the design of a bench top test rig in which the system is to be evaluated.
