摘要: This final technical report was prepared by Rolls-Royce Allison summarizing the multiyear activities of the Advanced Turbine Technology Applications Project (ATTAP) and the Hybrid Vehicle Turbine Engine Technology Support (HVTE-TS; project. The ATTAP program was initiated in October 1987 and continued through 1993 under sponsorship of the U.S. Department of Energy (DoE), energy Conservation and Renewable Energy, Office of Transportation Technologies, Propulsion Systems, Advanced Propulsion Division. Until 1996, technical direction was provided by the NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, Ohio. Subsequent technical direction was provided by DoE, Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Office of Transportation Technologies, Washington, D.C., with contract management by the DoE Chicago Field Office. ATTAP was intended to advance the technological readiness of the automotive ceramic gas turbine engine. The target appIication was the prime power unit coupled to conventional transmistions and powertrains. During the early 1990s, hybrid electric powered automotive propulsion systems became the focus of development and demonstration efforts by the U.S. auto industry and the Department of Energy. Thus in 1994, the original ATTAP technology focus was redirected to meet the needs of advanced gas turbine electric generator sets. As a result, the program was restructured to provide the requited hybrid vehicle turbine engine technology support and the project renamed HVTE-TS. The overall objective of the combined ATTAP and HVTE-TS projects was to develop and demonstrate structural ceramic components that have the potential for competitive automotive engine life cycle cost and for (grating 3500 hr in an advanced high temperature turbine engine environment Significant activities were also undertaken by engine manufacturers and ceramic companies in pursuit of these goals. Accomplishments have included: • Developed and implemented effective design process for turbine engine ceramic components • Demonstrated and verified ceramic component operational capability, structural integrity and durability a high temperature turbine engine environment • Completed over 10,000 ceramic component test hours • Achieved significant improvements to ceramic material processing techniques and fabrication technology with process yields improved fivefold and material strengths improved up to 100% • Demonstrated high temperature advanced combustion systems capable of meeting current and proposed Federal and California Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle (ULEV) standards • Developed and demonstrated regenerator core material, processing, and extrusion die technology in a production scale environment with the potential to meet system performance, efficiency, and cost goals for automotive application • Increased actual “in engine" operation of structural ceramic components from mere minutes to hundreds of hours endurance • Successfully demonstrated all-ceramic test bed automotive turbine engine operation at rotor inlet temperatures in excess of the design target of 2500°F
