Component Performance Investigation of J71 Type II Turbines V - Internal Flow Conditions of J71 Type IIA Turbine
An experimental investigation of the J71 Type IIA turbine was conducted at the equivalent design speed and work output. The design stagework distribution was closely approached, although the design vector diagram was not attained. Efficiencies of 0.904, 0.851, and 0.806 were obtained for the first, second, and third stages, respectively. Losses occurred near the hub and tip for all three rotors. The third-stage losses, however, were significantly greater than those of either the first or second stage.
