Presentation / Conference Contribution
Cageao, P. P., Johnson, K., Ambrose, S., & Omar, R. (2022). Experimental Investigation Into Oil Shedding From a Rotating Cup Geometry. In Proceedings of the ASME 2022 Turbomachinery Technical Conference & Exposition Turbo Expo 2022 June 13-17, 2022, Rotterdam, The Netherlands. https://doi.org/10.1115/GT2022-82195

Oil shedding from rotating components and static elements within rotating systems has a number of applications within the design and understanding of transmission systems as well as wider industrial applications. There is a reasonable body of prior r... Read More about Experimental Investigation Into Oil Shedding From a Rotating Cup Geometry.

Numerical Investigation Into Maximum Pressure Capability of Intershaft Hydraulic Seals (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Warusevitane, A., Johnson, K., & Ambrose, S. (2022). Numerical Investigation Into Maximum Pressure Capability of Intershaft Hydraulic Seals. In Proceedings of ASME Turbo Expo 2022 Turbomachinery Technical Conference and Exposition GT2022 June 13-17, 2022, Rotterdam, The Netherlands. https://doi.org/10.1115/GT2022-82196

Hydraulic seals are used as intershaft seals in aero-engines and consist of an oil filled trough on the higher speed shaft and a fin on the lower speed shaft that dips into the oil forming the seal. Rotation is imparted to the sealing fluid within th... Read More about Numerical Investigation Into Maximum Pressure Capability of Intershaft Hydraulic Seals.

Investigation of Droplet Shedding in an Aeroengine Bearing Chamber Using Convolutional Neural Networks (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Farbrother, K., Cageao, P. P., Johnson, K., & Ambrose, S. (2022). Investigation of Droplet Shedding in an Aeroengine Bearing Chamber Using Convolutional Neural Networks. In Proceedings of the ASME 2022 Turbomachinery Technical Conference & Exposition GT2022 June 13-17, 2022, Rotterdam, The Netherlands. https://doi.org/10.1115/GT2022-82275

More efficient aeroengines are needed to reduce the environmental impact of civil aviation. Design changes for increased efficiency mean that higher loads are transmitted through the bearings supporting the rotating shafts. Better bearing chamber des...
