- Summary
-
A test facility for conducting full-scale advanced annular jet engine combustor research and durability tests is described. Combustors have been operated on ambient or heated ASTM-A1, natural gas, and propane fuels to an average exit temperature of 2400' F (1589 K). The airflow of 285 lb/sec (129.4 kg/sec) at 1200' F (922 K), 115 psia (79.2 N/cm2), and 60 000-ft (18 240-m) altitude exhaust capability allows simulation of combustor inlet conditions over most of the range of interest in supersonic cruise engines. Description of a unique jet-engine-fired, nonvitiating air heater is included. The test section, the instrumentation, the data acquisition system, and operation techniques and experiences are also described.
