Gas-turbine engine units design using resources of stereo lithography for form models production

Abstract

This article describes the elements of innovative approaches and technologies during development of scientific product on the example of numerical and simulation studies of the gas-turbine engine’s blade cooling system. Main actions sequence of the developer is shown: selection of the constructive solution for cooling modeling, numerical modeling execution, making of the model prototype and quality assessment of its manufacturing for carrying out of full-scale experiment. The main development tools are: CAD/CAE tools, technologies and equipment for fast prototyping and metrological checking.
