Proposal and realisation of a modification to Al-9 engine for installing a free gas turbine
(University of Žilina, 2023) Supuka, Matej; Čerňan, Jozef
This paper focuses on the creation of a prototype connection of the AI-9 engine with a free turbine for creation of an experimental turboshaft engine. We go through theoretical knowledge about the issue in which we work on the basis of which we created solutions. We worked with the teaching aids of the Department of Aviation at the airport in Žilina. We prepared these tools for work in the workshop and we made minor adjustments to the engine to make it possible to carry out our work. In our work, we used a procedure called high-fidelity prototyping. This means that we created a digital model on which we applied solutions. We decided to transfer our prototype to the digital environment due to low financial and time costs. We faced several design problems, including the need for a stator, the gap between the guide tunnel and the rotor, or how to connect to other components. We managed to find preliminary solutions for these problems and created a digital prototype of the resulting assembly. Subsequently, we presented the positives of our results and the method of their application in practice.
