Abstract
The gas turbine engine performance relies greatly on its component performance characteristics. Generally, engine manufacturers do not provide engine purchasers the component performance characteristics which can be obtained by lots of experimental tests at various operating conditions and big amount of expenses. In previous works the component maps have mostly been generated by scaling from a similar component map. However this scaling method has large error at off design points, specially in high altitude operation. Therefore this work proposes an inverse modeling method that can generate components maps of PT6A-67A turboprop engine using performance data provided by the engine manufacturer. In addition, evaluation can be made through comparison between performance analysis results using the performance simulation program including the generated compressor map and performance data.
