TEACHING
OBJECTIVES
The objectives of a course and lifelong learning:
The objective of a course is
not to cover a certain set of topics,
but rather
to facilitate student
learning.
5
Good teachers are not only concerned with
the learning of a set of facts,
but rather with
learning that can be applied and used
in situations outside the course examinations.
6
TEACHING
OBJECTIVES
The students need to develop skills that will help them
in a lifelong learning process.
The teachers need to stimulate
interest in further learning.
Offering a base of concepts and skills that will facilitate
further learning and thinking
is an important part of college teaching.

Objective :
Improving energy efficiency of
turbomachinery systems through
aerodynamic and heat transfer related
performance gains.

AERO-THERMAL STUDIES AT
PSU TURBOMACHINERY AERO-HEAT TRANSFER LABORATORY
Potential Impact :
Significant stage efficiency gains in turbomachinery are possible
by minimizing the tip leakage flow mass flow rate,
reducing the secondary kinetic energy of passage vorticity at the stage exit and
using effective turbine cooling schemes.
Approach :
Current studies focus on turbine aero-thermal experiments in a modern large scale rotating turbine rig.
A high performance cluster of computers is also utilized in support of current turbomachinery research
studies.
Recent emphasis areas are: turbine casing treatments
Turbine blade tip aerodynamics including novel squealer tips and
leakage de-sensitization devices
Turbine disk cavity flows and intra-stage leakage aerodynamics
Turbine blade tip injection studies and secondary flow minimization
Endwall contouring including non-axisymmetric contouring

Simulating Advanced Tip Forms in PSU Turbine Rig AFTRF
Objective: Better tip designs
For reduced tip clearance mass
flow rate
• Look at larger clearances (up to ~3%)
• Include squealer tip, inclined sq. tips, etc.
• Six blades, in two groups of three, have the tips cut off and replaced with
SLA plastic tips (Stereo-lithographically manufactured plastic tip models)
• SLA tips are shortened to test larger clearances; shimmed for smaller cl’s
• Some SLA tips will have advanced tip cavities and other new concepts

HELISPY

Hover Endurance =25 min
Radius of action = 25 miles
The HeliSpy is a VTOL (Vertical Take Off
Landing) air vehicle that uses the MP2028g
autopilot. The HeliSpy has capabilities of
both a helicopter and an airplane. The
HeliSpy can take off and land vertically and
maneuvers laterally like a helicopter.
For high speed forward flight, the HeliSpy
can be tilted nearly horizontally and in this
configuration the main body and the rotor
guard act like a wing and the HeliSpy flies
in a manner similar to a fixed wing aircraft.

Honeywell’s MAV can be

The MAV can launch in 15
knot winds and operate in
20 knot winds.
The MAV’s ground
proximity sensors let it get
close enough to the
ground then it just drops
and land.

GoldenEye-50 is unique among current ducted
fan UAS because it is able to take off vertically,
autonomously transition to high-speed
wingborne flight and then return to hover flight
in the target area to collect imagery and sensor
readings.
GoldenEye-50 was designed as a technology
development platform for Aurora's larger
ducted fan aircraft, the GoldenEye-OAV.
GoldenEye-50 was instrumental in the
development of the flight control system and
acoustic signature reduction for Aurora's
GoldenEye-OAV program.

Duct Diameter

Weight

Height
= 12 inch
Radius of action = 5.5 miles
Originally conceived as a vertical takeoff and
landing surveillance system, the air vehicle
has evolved through hundreds of hours of
ground and flight testing.
The design concept is simple and efficient and
makes use of lightweight composite
construction techniques. The structure is
comprised of an outer duct enclosing the
fan system, centerbody (avionics and
subsystems), fixed stators and movable
vanes operated by actuators
(thrust vectoring).
The engine is housed in the centerbody, and
fuel tanks are located in the forward
section of the duct. A variety of payloads may
be carried in either the nose, tail or duct of the
vehicle.

Skorsky Cypher

Endurance
= 78.7 inch
= 253.5 lbs
= 3 hours
Sikorsky Aircraft developed the Cypher ducted-rotor
VTOL craft in the early 1990s to meet a US close-range
UAV requirement. The Cypher combines Sikorsky's coaxial advancing-blade concept rotor system and Fantail
ducted tail-rotor technology in a doughnut-shaped
shrouded-rotor UAV tethered tests in front of a wind
generator capable of generating wind speeds of over
50-60 knots.
This was followed by free flights.
Sikorsky is interested in developing commercial roles
for the Cypher, using the safety advantages of a
shrouded-rotor design as one selling point. The
company says its non-defence roles outnumber
potential military missions for the UAV, including
counter-narcotics, ordnance disposal, forestry, law
enforcement and search and rescue.
A publicity movie was briefly circulated in the mid-1990s
showing what appeared to be the Cypher development
demonstrating its capability of shadowing an individual
person in an urban-design demonstration range
scenario.
The Cypher is capable of a speed of 80 kts. and claims
an endurance of 3 hours.

Airborne Remotely Operated Device (1982-1988)
AROD
The first generation AROD vehicle, developed by Moller as a subcontractor to Perceptronics, was electrically
powered, with power supplied through a tether from the ground station, and was easily small enough to be
carried by one person. The second generation vehicles, developed by Sandia, were much larger and powered
by a 26-horsepower, two-stroke gasoline engine, driving a single lifting propeller. Servo driven vanes located
at the bottom of AROD controlled vehicle attitude, allowing hover, multi-directional translation, and rotation
about its vertical axis. An automatic control system helped maintain vehicle stability. A fiber optic cable
provided a communications to a small Ground Control Unit, with a radio link as backup. A 5 km spool of optical
fiber was carried aboard AROD to support a 2 km round trip or 5 km one-way mission.
