Abstract
Computer models of the behavior of a gas turbine engine coupled with a propeller are invaluable tools for engine design (Ping Zhu and Saravanamuttoo (1992), Rick and Muggli (1989)). Based on physical laws of mechanics and thermodynamics, and on experimentally given or computed characteristics of engine components, a mathematical description of the engine -propeller couple was proposed. It consist of a system of algebraic and differential equations. In Doležal et al. (1990, 1992) we described an implementation of the model of a moderately sized stand-alone gas turbine engine. The correspondence of computed results with measurements of real system was quite satisfactory.
