Title: High-Temperature-Turbine-Technology Program. Phase II. Technology test and support studies. Technical progress report, 1 January-31 March 1981

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6811327

This report presents the status of work performed on the High Temperature Turbine Technology Program, Phase II Technology Test and Support Studies during the first quarter of 1981, January 1 through March 31, 1981. Work is in progress to prepare the Turbine Spool Technology Rig (TSTR) for a 100 h test with contaminated fuel. The 60/sup 0/ Sector TSTR Combustor Rig is being prepared for test to verify the contaminant injection system operation and its effect on the exit temperature profile. This information will be used to modify the TSTR combustor prior to test. The status of the combustor development is given for (a) LBG Combustor (Fuel Cooled) and (b) High Temperature Low Emissions Combustor for coal-derived liquid fuel. Both of these combustors are in the design stage. Control systems status and descriptions for the above items are given. The analytical studies to support the combustor programs are described. Oxidation testing of Nichrome V-Cb material porous mesh for transpiration air cooled turbine airfoils is reviewed.
