In the high-pressure combustion chamber test rig (HBK-S), complex and multi-stage combustion chamber systems of the next generation can be analysed under conditions typical of gas turbines, i.e. at ...

In the High Pressure Optical Test Rig (HiPOT), burners can be operated under typical gas turbine conditions and combustion phenomena can be analysed in detail, i.e. at high pressure, high turbulence ...

GE Aviation plans to start testing this summer on a high pressure compressor (HPC) rig for the GE9X engine designated for the Boeing 777X. The HPC test rig will occur in Massa, Italy.

The test campaign of HPT blades and nozzles demonstrated improved durability and fuel efficiency compared to conventional ...

All experiments were performed in a computer-controlled test rig under vacuum in order ... to Nickel-based superalloys and replace high-pressure turbine blades made of Nickel-based superalloys ...

General Electric will find out later this summer how the core of the new engine for the 777X performs in an isolated ground test. The maturation testing on the high pressure compressor rig will ...

US and European aviation regulators have certificated new high-pressure turbine blades that CFM International ... Ohio-based GE tested the new blades using a “dust rig… designed to address ...

The exhaust steam from the high-pressure turbine is at a pressure of about 195 pounds per sq. in. and is reheated by steam from the boilers before passing into the low-pressure turbine.

That's where the Greenville rig comes in. The new turbine test bed not only has its own gasworks with 180,000 gallons (681,000 L) of liquefied natural gas, it also boasts North America’s largest ...

Plans to design the world’s largest open-access offshore wind-turbine drive-train test rig have been announced by the UK’s Energy Technologies Institute (ETI). Two companies - Converteam and Horiba ...
