Monday, August 31 - Training Sessions
Introduction to Aviation Gas Turbines
Instructor: Ryan Battelle
A quick review of the salient points of aviation gas turbine technology intended for the novice, with a few details of interest to those with experience in the field.
Small Turbojet Model Development
Instructor: Michael List, USAF AFMC/RQTT
This tutorial will employ a small turbojet to demonstrate development of models for complete analysis of an engine. The focus will be on creation of models that enhance understanding of the engine operation, models applicable to engine redesign and derivative designs, and analyses in support of validation of computational tools.
Challenges in Electric Power Generation for Turbine Engine Systems
Instructors: Kevin Yost, AFRL/RQQE, Chase Kitzmiller, AFRL/RQQE, and Zachary Adamson, AFRL/RQQE
Modern military aircraft electrical demands present a complex challenge to electrical power generation on the vehicle. This session explores how the magnitude and dynamic characteristics of the vehicle's electrical power system necessitate leap-ahead choices in electric generator technology, integration, and testing. Challenges associated with dynamic and negative-impedance electrical loads, engine/generator pairing and integration, practical generator SWAP, maintaining overall system protection and reliability, and ensuring electrical power quality/stability will be discussed.
Session Topics occuring during General Session
- Session 1: Operational Relevance
- Session 2: Integration Of Technology And Innovation
- Session 3: Speed And Agility In Acquisition
