The thesis proposes an overall performance estimation procedure for a new turbo-rotary compound engine (TURC) and an associated novel thermodynamic cycle. In this engine, two or multiple spools are lined up in series within the engine. In the front spool, positive displacement rotary vane type turbines drive axial compressor the performance of which were estimated using stage stacking calculations. In the back spool, axial turbine stages drive positive displacement rotary vane type compressors, the performance of axial turbine was predicted by series matching of turbine stages. Two air streams feed separately the customary turbo components and the rotary vane components, respectively. Accordingly, the primary high mass flow through the axial compressors and turbines undergoes Bryton cycle, where as the secondary, low mass flow through the positive displacement rotary components is mainly undergoes Akmandor cycle, which is a novel thermodynamic cycle. The energy consumed internally by the engine is minimized because less input shaft power is needed for the rotary vane compressors and higher inlet temperatures and less cooling can be tolerated by the intermittent combustion rotary vane turbines. The result is a radical improvement in both efficiency and net power output. But this result can be estimated, since the novel engine is the combination of a high efficiency internal combustion engine and high performance gas turbine engine. Aerothermodynamics and spool matching calculations comparing a T56-A14 core with a TURC of similar size and compression ratio show that the new engine provides superior performance characteristics by increasing the net output work by 100% and decreasing the specific fuel consumption by 20%.

Thermodynamic and structural design and analysis of a novel turbo rotary engine Ercan, Taylan; Akmandor, İbrahim Sinan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2005) A novel turbo rotary engine, operating according to a novel thermodynamic cycle, having an efficient compression phase, a limited temperature combustion phase followed by a long power extraction phase is designed. Thermodynamic and structural design and analysis of this novel engine is carried out and two prototypes are manufactured according to these analysis. High performance figures such as torque, power and low specific fuel consumption are calculated. Also the component tests of the manufactured protot...
Performance Calculation of SR Motors for Optimum Design and a Washing Machine Application Ertan, Hulusi Bülent (2008-09-09) This paper aims to develop an approach for performance calculation of an SR motor, which is suitable for use within mathematical design optimization. For this reason the requirement is to develop procedures, which are both accurate and fast. The procedures adopted here rely on flux-linkage-current-position curves of the motor. A series of tests are carried out on a test motor. The results are compared with estimations from the developed algorithms. It is shown that the current waveform, torque-speed curve, ...
Performance evaluation of a wind driven DOIG using a hybrid model Cadirci, I; Ermiş, Muammer (1998-06-01) This paper presents the performance analysis of a wind driven double output induction generator (DOIG) operating at varying shaft speeds. A periodic transient state analysis of DOIG equipped with two controlled converters is carried out using a hybrid induction machine model. It is shown that practical aspects of converters such as overlap and harmonics reduce the power output of the DOIG system and limit the operating shaft speed range, especially in the subsynchronous region near the synchronous speed. Va...
Turbo-rotary compound engine (TRCE) and novel thermodynamic cycle Akmandor, Ibrahim Sinan; Ercan, Taylan; Karaca, Mehmet (2005-06-09) The present paper proposes a new turbo-rotary compound engine (TRCE) and an associated novel thermodynamic cycle. In this engine, shafts linking customary gas turbine engines components such as axial compressors and axial turbines are eliminated. Instead, two or multiple spools are lined up in series within the engine. In the front spool, partial admission rotary vane type turbines drive axial compressor stages. In the back spool, axial turbine stages drive partial admission rotary vane type compressors. Tw...
Design of a GaN Based Integrated Modular Motor Drive Uğur, Mesut; Keysan, Ozan (2018-10-25) In this study, design procedure of an Integrated Modular Motor Drive (IMMD) is presented focusing on high power density. The design is based on a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) and GaN FETs. Fractional slot concentrated windings are used on the stator. Slot/pole combination and winding configuration is selected based on having low cogging torque and high winding factor. An extended motor drive inverter topology is proposed where 2-level voltage source inverters are connected both in series and pa...
