Further Information

Courses are together with exams the building blocks for modules. Please keep in mind that information on the contents, learning outcomes and, especially examination conditions are given on the module level only – see section "Assignment to Modules" above.

additional remarks Components of gas turbines and aeroengines: inlet, compressor, combustor, turbine, and nozzle. Engine performance. Mathematical background: vector and tensor analysis. Mechanics and thermodynamics of fluid flow, mass conservation, continuity equation, momentum equation, energy equation, stress-extension relations, turbulence models. Turbomachinery: principals of operation and basic terms, absolute and relative coordinates, similarity equations, characteristic values, compressor and turbine maps. Calculation of meridian layer (S2-layer): stream line curbature and stream line function, radial equilibrium. Profiling of rotor and stator blades (S1-layers): fluid flow, supersonic and transonic considerations.
