Gas turbine engine SAMYQ BEXULTAN MX-20-5 A gas turbine engine is a type of heat engine that operates on a not very simple principle. The gas in the engine is compressed and heated, after which, the energy of this gas is converted into mechanical work. The simplest scheme of a gas turbine engine Как работает газотурбинный двигатель? Если рассматривать, более подробно процесс работы газотурбинного двигателя, то можно выделить несколько этапов, которые в соединении описывают сложный процесс преобразования энергии сжатого газа в механическую работу. Какие это этапы? The principle of operation of a gas turbine engine: 1. suction and compression of air in the axial compressor, its supply to the combustion chamber; 2. mixing of compressed air with fuel to form a fuel-air mixture (FA) and combustion of this mixture; 3. the expansion of gases due to its heating during combustion, which forms a gas pressure vector directed towards a lower resistance (in the direction of the turbine blades), the transfer of energy (pressure) of the gas by the turbine blades to the disk or shaft in which these blades are fixed; 4. drive the turbine disk into rotation and, consequently, the transmission of torque along the shaft from the turbine disk to the compressor disk.
