Design and installation of a test bench for combustion chamber cooling investigations of gas turbines are carried out. The test bench mainly consists of a radial fan, an electrical heater, an air tunnel, a test section, and cooling air supply system. The combustor liner is presented by a flat test plate which is a scaled-up model of a real combustor geometry. Main flow can be provided at a temperature in the range of 298-573 K, which enables a wide range of density and blowing ratio between the main flow and the coolant. The surface temperature distribution of the test plate is measured by infrared thermography technique to determine the adiabatic cooling effectiveness. The test bench enables to investigate the effects of different geometrical and flow parameters on effusion and film cooling effectiveness.

Simulation of a non-premixed swirl burner Solmaz, Mehmet Burak; Uzol, Oğuz; Uslu, Sıtkı; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2014) Flame stabilizing in a gas turbine combustion chamber is one of the designing issues. Non-premixed swirling flames are commonly applied to aerial vehicles’ combustors due to their advantages in flame stabilizing and flame length shortening. However, swirling flows are very complex and hard to simulate even without reaction. Previous studies have showed that Large Eddy Simulation (LES) is able to predict swirling flow with a good degree of accuracy. On the other, it is quite expensive and is still far away f...
Design of a high temperature erosion apparatus for testing of boiler tubes Ergün, Hüseyin; Öztürk, Tayfur; Doruk, Mustafa; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2010) In this thesis an apparatus is designed which enables the testing of thermal power plant boiler tubes against erosion. The apparatus makes use of a tube sample directly cut from the boiler tubes and simulates conditions similar to those prevailing in boilers in lignite fired power plants. The apparatus is composed of three components; a furnace for heating the sample, a loading system which allows application of tensile stresses while allowing the rotation of the sample, and a particle blower that delivers ...
Analysis of regenerative cooling ın liquid propellant rocket engines Boysan, Mustafa Emre; Ulaş, Abdullah; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2008) High combustion temperatures and long operation durations require the use of cooling techniques in liquid propellant rocket engines. For high-pressure and high-thrust rocket engines, regenerative cooling is the most preferred cooling method. In regenerative cooling, a coolant flows through passages formed either by constructing the chamber liner from tubes or by milling channels in a solid liner. Traditionally, approximately square cross sectional channels have been used. However, recent studies have shown ...
Characterization of gas turbine burner instabilities by wavelet analysis of infrared images Allouis, Christophe Gerard; Amoresano, A.; Langella, G.; Niola, V.; Quaremba, G. (2016-05-01) In this paper, an optical approach is tested to spatially characterize combustion fluctuations in a single burner atmospheric gas turbine test rig. The target of present investigation was to test the optical technique during combustion tests campaign, in order to couple it to an acoustic one in a future activity to be developed on the same experimental setup. The analysis based on fast infrared imaging of flames, coupled with photomultiplier and microphones measurements, has been elaborated on a 3 MW gas tu...
Design of a pintle injector Erkal, Berksu; Aksel, Mehmet Haluk.; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2019) Pintle injector design methodology for liquid oxygen/gaseous methane rocket engine is investigated with this study. Cold flow experimental work is conducted with water and air to investigate the characteristics of designed injectors by observing spray formations. 750N at maximum thrust with 3:1 throttle ability is chosen as mission requirement. 3 different reservoir geometries are manufactured and experimental investigation is conducted to ensure uniform and axisymmetric spray cone. After decision of the fi...
