Investigation of High-Temperature Operation of Liquid-Cooled Gas Turbines 1: Turbine Wheel of Aluminum Alloy, a High-Conductivity Nonstrategic Material
Description:
Report presenting an investigation of turbine operating temperatures as affected by liquid cooling, especially if materials of high conductivity are used, at gas temperatures up to 1925 degrees Fahrenheit. Results regarding the statio heat-transfer rig and turbine rig are provided. The investigation showed that nonstrategic material such as aluminum alloy can be used in liquid-cooled turbine wheels at high gas temperatures.
