    摘要: A pulse detonation system for a gas turbine engine having a longitudinal centerline axis extending therethrough includes a rotatable cylindrical member having a forward surface, an aft surface, and an outer circumferential surface, where a plurality of spaced detonation passages are disposed therethrough. Each detonation passage includes at least a portion having a longitudinal axis extending therethrough oriented at a circumferential angle to the longitudinal centerline axis. The pulse detonation system further includes a shaft rotatably connected to the cylindrical member and a stator configured in spaced arrangement with the forward surface of the cylindrical member and a portion of the shaft. The stator has at least one group of ports formed therein alignable with the detonation passages as the cylindrical member rotates. In this way, detonation cycles are performed in the detonation passages so that combustion gases exit the aft surface of the cylindrical member to create a torque which causes the cylindrical member to rotate. Each detonation passage further includes a first end located adjacent the forward surface of the cylindrical member and a second end located adjacent the aft surface of the cylindrical member.

The pulse detonation system includes a rotatable cylindrical member having a forward surface, an aft surface, and an outer circumferential surface, where at least one stage of circumferentially spaced detonation passages are disposed therethrough. Each detonation passage further includes: a leading portion positioned adjacent the forward surface of the cylindrical member, with the leading portion having a centerline therethrough oriented at a designated angle to an axis extending substantially parallel to the longitudinal centerline axis within a specified plane; a trailing portion positioned adjacent the aft surface of the cylindrical member, with the trailing portion having a centerline therethrough oriented at a designated angle to the axis within the specified plane; and, a middle portion connecting the leading and trailing portions, with the middle portion having a centerline therethrough with a substantially constantly changing slope in the specified plane. A shaft is rotatably connected to the cylindrical member and a stator is configured in spaced arrangement with the forward surface of the cylindrical member and a portion of the shaft. The stator further includes at least one group of ports formed therein alignable with the leading portions of the detonation passages as the cylindrical member rotates. In this way, detonation cycles are performed in the detonation passages so that combustion gases interact therewith to create a torque which causes the cylindrical member to rotate.

    摘要: A method and system for maintaining a limiting gas temperature in a gas turbine engine working fluid flowpath by monitoring the gas temperature and adjusting one or more parameters when the gas temperature exceeds a predetermined or a calculated temperature limit during engine operation. The parameters include one or more of a group of engine parameters including high and low pressure turbine nozzle flow areas, fan and core flow areas, and a rotor speed. The one or more parameters are adjusted to lower the gas temperature to below the temperature limit during engine operation. The limiting gas temperature may be a turbine exhaust gas temperature such as a high pressure turbine exhaust gas temperature. The turbine nozzle flow areas may be adjusted with variable nozzle vanes and the fan and core exhaust nozzle flow areas with a translatable fan nozzle cowling and a translatable core nozzle plug, respectively.

    摘要: A gas turbine engine combustion system includes a plurality of fuel injectors circumferentially disposed around a combustor in a one to one fuel supply relationship with a plurality of fuel nozzle valves, and an electronic controller for controlling the fuel nozzle valves to eliminate and/or reduce hot streaking in response to sensed hot streak conditions. The fuel nozzle valves may be modulating valves. The electronic controller may be used to individually control the fuel nozzle valves. The hot streak conditions may be sensed with temperature sensors such as temperature sensors operably mounted in the combustor. A program in the electronic controller may be used for determining broken or malfunctioning sensors by calculating a combustor temperature and comparing it to measured temperatures from the sensors and comparing the measured fuel pressures in the individual fuel nozzle circuits with the simulated or calculated fuel pressures.
