Investigation of Turbines Suitable for Use in a Turbojet Engine with High Compressor Pressure Ratio and Low Compressor-tip Speed VI: Experimental Performance of Two-stage Turbine

The brake internal efficiency of the highly loaded two-stage turbine was 0.79 equivalent design work and speed. The maximum brake internal efficiency was 0.84. A radial survey revealed these major defects: (1) the first-rotor throat area was too large, and a large area of underturned flow existed near the tip;(2) considerable underturning existed at the second-stator outlet; and (3) tangential components of velocity at the turbine outlet amounted to 2.5 points in turbine efficiency.
