This paper presents the development of a generic component level model of a turbofan engine simulation with a digital controller, in an advanced graphical simulation environment. The goal of this effort is to develop and demonstrate a flexible simulation platform for future research in propulsion system control and diagnostic technology. A previously validated FORTRAN-based model of a modern, high-performance, military-type turbofan engine is being used to validate the platform development. The implementation process required the development of various innovative procedures, which are discussed in the paper. Open-loop and closed-loop comparisons are made between the two simulations. Future enhancements that are to be made to the modular engine simulation are summarized. Parker, Khary I. and Guo, Ten-Heui Glenn Research Center NASA/TM-2003-212543, E-14109, NAS 1.15:212543
Advanced Control of Turbofan Engines describes the operational performance requirements of turbofan (commercial) engines from a controls systems perspective, covering industry-standard methods and research-edge advances. This book allows the reader to design controllers and produce realistic simulations using public-domain software like CMAPSS: Commercial Modular Aero-Propulsion System Simulation, whose versions are released to the public by NASA. The scope of the book is centered on the design of thrust controllers for both steady flight and transient maneuvers. Classical control theory is not dwelled on, but instead an introduction to general undergraduate control techniques is provided. Advanced Control of Turbofan Engines is ideal for graduate students doing research in aircraft engine control and non-aerospace oriented control engineers who need an introduction to the field.
A dynamic, high-bypass turbofan engine has been developed in the modeling and simulation environment of MATLAB/Simulink. Individual elements, including the fan, high pressure compressor, combustor, high pressure turbine, low pressure turbine, plenum volumes, and exit nozzle, have been combined to investigate the behavior of a typical turbofan engine throughout an aircraft mission. Special attention has been paid to the development of transient capabilities throughout the model, increasing model fidelity, eliminating algebraic constraints, and reducing simulation time through the use of advanced numerical solvers. This lessening of computation times is paramount for conducting future aircraft system-level design trade studies efficiently, as demonstrated in previous thermal “Tip-to-Tail” modeling of a long range strike platform. The new engine model is run for a specified mission while tracking critical parameters. These results, as well as the simulation times for both engine models, are compared to the previous “Tip-to-Tail” engine to verify accuracy and quantify computational time improvements. The new engine model is then integrated with the full “Tip-to-Tail” aircraft model. This new model is compared to the previous “Tip-to-Tail” aircraft model to confirm accuracy and quantify computational time improvements. The new “Tip-to-Tail” aircraft model is then used for a simple design trade study of a critical component of the cooling system.
"The User Guide includes a description of the general layout of the system, the general approach used in calculating gas properties throughout the engine simulation model, the recommended limitations and suggested constraints of the system, how the performance calculated by TRBOFN, the engine simulation program in this system, compares to SMOTE, an accepted standard turbofan engine simulation program, and discussion of the general conventions followed in developing the system. The Turbofan Engine Technology Evaluation System is intended to be a computer age 'back-of-the-envelope' calculation tool for use in evaluating the relative payoffs of competing gas turbine engine technologies. The system consists of four programs: SETUP - an interactive graphics program used to select and input design cycle parameters for the engine and the flight conditions at which performance is to be calculated. TRBOFN - the turbofan engine performance simulation program; ENCOM - an interactive engine sizing and comparison program that also allows selection of performance parameters for graphs and comparison of up to five engines' performance powering an airplane through an eleven leg fighter/ground attack mission. The bottom line output in this comparison is the minimum fraction of take-off gross weight that must be fuel for the airplane to complete the mission using each engine under consideration; and GRAPH - an interactive graphics program for the creation of publication quality graphs of almost any calculated parameter versus any other."--Abstract, report documention p.
A Zero-D cycle simulation of the GE90-94B high bypass turbofan engine has been achieved utilizing mini-maps generated from a high-fidelity simulation. The simulation utilizes the Numerical Propulsion System Simulation (NPSS) thermodynamic cycle modeling system coupled to a high-fidelity full-engine model represented by a set of coupled 3D computational fluid dynamic (CFD) component models. Boundary conditions from the balanced, steady state cycle model are used to define component boundary conditions in the full-engine model. Operating characteristics of the 3D component models are integrated into the cycle model via partial performance maps generated from the CFD flow solutions using one-dimensional mean line turbomachinery programs. This paper highlights the generation of the high-pressure compressor, booster, and fan partial performance maps, as well as turbine maps for the high pressure and low pressure turbine. These are actually "mini-maps" in the sense that they are developed only for a narrow operating range of the component. Results are compared between actual cycle data at a take-off condition and the comparable condition utilizing these mini-maps. The mini-maps are also presented with comparison to actual component data where possible. Turner, Mark G. and Reed, John A. and Ryder, Robert and Veres, Joseph P.
