Abstract: Knowledge of heat transfer in fuel wetted passages is important for informing injector design and life estimates due to the effects of temperature on fuel degradation. Future injectors will be manufactured using additive ...

Abstract: In radially staged lean direct injection (LDI) systems, pilot fuel plays an important role in cooling the mains fuel gallery in regions of the flight envelope where the mains fuel is stagnant. Under these conditions, ...

Abstract: Steady-state stagnation temperature probes are used during gas turbine engine testing as a means of characterizing turbomachinery component performance. The probes are located in the high-velocity gas-path, where temperature ...
