Combined effects of stress and temperature on hydrogen diffusion in non-hydride forming alloys applied in gas turbines

Hydrogen plays a vital role in the utilisation of renewable energy, but ingress and diffusion of hydrogen in a gas turbine can induce hydrogen embrittlement on its metallic components. This paper aims to investigate the hydrogen transport in a non-hydride forming alloy such as Alloy 690 used in gas turbines inspired by service conditions of...

Helicopter Gas Turbine Engine Performance Analysis: A Multivariable Approach

Helicopter performance relies heavily on the available output power of the engine(s) installed. A simplistic single-variable analysis approach is often used within the flight-testing community to reduce raw flight-test data in order to predict the available output power under different atmospheric conditions. This simplistic analysis approach...
