NASA HOST project overviewNASA's Hot Section Technology, or 'HOST', program has developed improved analytical models for the aerothermal environment, thermomechanical loading, material behavior, structural response, and service life of aircraft gas turbine engines' hot section components. These models, in conjunction with sophisticated computer codes, can be used in design analyses of critical combustor and turbine elements. Toward these ends, efforts were undertaken in instrumentation, combustion, turbine heat transfer, structural analysis, fatigue/fracture, and surface protection. Attention is presently given to the organization of HOST activities and their specific subject matter.
