Numerical investigations to assess the impact of shaft speed on the performance of scoop devices (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Prabhakar, A., Abdalla Abakr, Y., & Simmons, K. (2018). Numerical investigations to assess the impact of shaft speed on the performance of scoop devices. In ASME Turbo Expo 2018: Turbomachinery Technical Conference and Exposition Volume 2C: Turbomachinery. https://doi.org/10.1115/GT2018-76177

The demand for continuous and efficient lubrication in aeroengine bearing assemblies has encouraged the development of scoop based lubrication systems. Using a scooped rotor in conjunction with axial passages within the shaft, a scoop system can prov...
