| Abstract | In this paper, the functional robustness of a jet engine component is investigated. Located at the rear part of the engine, the Turbine Rear Structure (TRS) provides a support structure for the low-pressure shaft, while redirecting the exhaust flow from the low-pressure turbine to the exit nozzle. For larger engines, TRSs are fabricated assemblies consisting of cast, wrought and sheet metal parts. In a case study, virtual tools are used to examine how geometrical variation in cast parts of the TRS assembly affects performance. Variation data are obtained by scanning cast parts in a 3D laser scanner. The resulting data are fed into a CAD model as surface point parameters. The parts are then assembled virtually using CAT software. The assemblies are subsequently fed into a simulation platform where they are meshed, and CFD and FEM are used to evaluate the structural and aerodynamic effects of the variation. To quantitatively analyze the effects of variation, five cast parts with different geometrical variations are virtually assembled into 25 geometries and analyzed with respect to sixteen functional properties. Results show that geometric variation has a noticeable effect on performance. We believe this approach to be a useful tool in engine design. Being able to virtually examine the geometrical robustness of a design in early phases reduces the need for redesign loops. This leads not only to faster and less expensive product development, but also to better and more reliable engine designs. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
