Endurance Evaluation of Sintered, Porous, Strut-Supported Turbine Blades made by Federal-Mogul-Bower-Bearings, Incorporated, under Bureau of Aeronautics Contract NOas 55-124-C
Four strut-supported, transpiration-cooled turbine blades were investigated experimentally in a turbojet engine. The blade shells were fabricated by the mold-sintering method with spherical stainless-steel powder. Two blades were investigated in order to evolve suitable capping methods for the blade tip. Two other blades were used to evaluate the durability of the porous-shell material. The blades were investigated at a turbine-tip speed of 1305 feet per second, an average turbine-inlet temperature of about 1670 F, and at a porous-shell temperature limited to a maximum of approximately 1040 F
Experimental investigation of air-cooled turbine blade in turbojet engine VIII : rotor blades with capped leading edges
An air-cooled turbine blade with a capped leading edge was investigated in a modified commercial turbojet engine over a range of engine speed from 4000 to 11,350 rpm. The cooling performance of the caped-leading-edge configuration was superior to all leading-edge cooling modifications previously investigated
Experimental investigation of air-cooled turbine blades in turbojet engine III : rotor blades with 34 steel tubes in cooling-air passages
Carrier induced ferromagnetism in concentrated and diluted local-moment systems
For modeling the magnetic properties of concentrated and diluted magnetic
semiconductors, we use the Kondo-lattice model. The magnetic phase diagram is
derived by inspecting the static susceptibility of itinerant band electrons,
which are exchange coupled to localized magnetic moments. It turns out that
rather low band occupations favour a ferromagnetic ordering of the local moment
systems due to an indirect coupling mediated by a spin polarization of the
itinerant charge carriers. The disorder in diluted systems is treated by adding
a CPA-type concept to the theory. For almost all moment concentrations x,
ferromagnetism is possible, however, only for carrier concentrations n
distinctly smaller than x. The charge carrier compensation in real magnetic
semiconductors (in Ga_{1-x}Mn_{x}As by e.g. antisites) seems to be a necessary
condition for getting carrier induced ferromagnetism.Comment: 9 pages (REVTeX), 6 figures, to be published in Phys. Rev.
