  1. Evaluation of a Particle Sampling Probe to Measure Mass Concentration in Particle-Laden Flows

    Particle ingestion is a prevalent issue for jet engines. During operation, sand and ash particles enter the engine and can cause serious problems, including erosion and buildup of Calcia-Magnesia-Alumina-Silicate (CMAS) deposits. Analyzing the particle mass concentration of the airflow can help …

  2. Development of a Novel Probe for Engine Ingestion Sampling in Parallel With Initial Developments of a High-speed Particle-laden Jet

    Particle ingestion remains an important concern for turbine engines, specifically those in aircraft. Sand and related particles tend to become suspended in air, posing an omnipresent health threat to engine components. This issue is most prevalent during operation in sandy environments at low …

  3. Development of Diagnostic Tools for Use in a Gas Turbine Engine Undergoing Solid Particulate Ingestion

    … operations as significant amounts of groundlevel particles can be entrained in the surrounding air and subsequently ingested into the engine. Prolonged exposure to particle ingestion events leads to premature engine wear and, in extreme cases, rapid engine failure. Expanding our current …
