Real Time 30 Gb/s Pattern Analyzer

Not Available The proposed innivation is a user-friendly Graphical User Interface (GUI), or Visual Modeling Environment (VME) for the Turbine Engine Reverse Modeling Aid Program (TERMAP). Although TERMAP is the primary modeling tool used by the Air Force and DoD to model gas turbine engine propulsion systems, it is cumbersome, difficult to learn, and time consuming to use. The purposed innovation meets the requirement of AF99-205, Aero Propulsion and Poser Technology, by developing a powerful, innovation, and time-saving analysis technique for the design of gas turbine engines and threby supports the Integrated Ghigh performance turbine Engine Technology (IGPTET) initiative. The objectives of this effort are to design and develop a software packagte that demonstrates significant effectiveness and utility. The Phase I software will include: an engine cycle component drag and drop interface, scaling and display of analysis results using integrated graphing package. A final report will also be delivered detailing the Phase I approach, software architecture, object-oriented design, and results. This innovation will likewise reduce engine development times and associated costs to the Air Force and DoD for manned and unmanned air vehicles (UAV) applications.
