Mini Gas Turbine Test Rig

Kurzbeschreibung

Complete Testing Capability

The Mini Gas Turbine Test Rig provides the essential systems required to operate, monitor and analyse a gas turbine engine from one integrated platform.
Key features include:

Real-time engine monitoring and data acquisition
Thrust, engine speed and fuel flow measurement
Bellmouth intake for air mass flow measurement
Engine pressure and temperature measurements
Ambient pressure, temperature and humidity measurements
Integrated fuel pumps and flow measurement
Dedicated starter motor power supply
Remote engine operation from a user-friendly user interface
Data recording for offline analysis
Integrated safety features

Additional sensors, measurement channels and bespoke instrumentation can be incorporated to meet specific test objectives.

Engine Performance – Measured in Real Time

The SCITEK control and data acquisition system continuously monitors engine parameters throughout testing.

Live data can be viewed and recorded for detailed analysis, enabling users to characterise engine performance, compare operating conditions, investigate modifications and validation of theoretical engine models.

For advanced research applications, instrumented engines can incorporate internal pressure and temperature measurement points. The rig can also accommodate standard, unmodified engines, making it suitable for repeatable production pass-off testing.

One Platform. Multiple Applications

Education

Bring gas turbine theory to life with practical engine operation, instrumentation and performance analysis.

Research & Development

Create a flexible experimental platform for engine research, performance investigation and the evaluation of modifications.

Aerospace & UAV Propulsion

Support the development and evaluation of small gas turbine propulsion systems for aerospace and unmanned vehicle applications.

Production Testing

Provide controlled and repeatable performance verification of standard production engines.

Configured Around Your Requirements

No two test programmes are exactly the same.

SCITEK can configure the Mini Gas Turbine Test Rig around your engine, application and test objectives, from additional instrumentation and measurement channels to bespoke software functionality.

The platform can also be expanded as requirements develop, providing a flexible test capability that can evolve alongside your research or development programme.
