Abstract
A combustion gas generator was constructed for the purpose of modeling shipboard gas turbine engine exhaust systems. In particular, the system was designed and validated for exhaust stack Mach numbers in the neighborhood of 0.07 and exhaust stack temperatures varying from 700 to 900°F with an exhaust stack inside diameter of 7.122 inches. Additionally a proposed gas turbine exhaust fournozzle eductor system was constructed for testing under high temperature conditions to verify temperature correlation parameters developed using cool air as the primary flow medium. A secondary air flow metering box was designed and partially completed for the determination of eductor pumping characteristics during hot flow operations.
