Book Description
An advanced turbine engine fan blade containment system using ceramic tiles on a polymer fiber backing ring is proposed. The proposed ceramic/polymer-fiber system has proven more weight effective than monolithic metallic or polymer materials for stopping penetration of ballistic munitions projectiles. It was expected that this technology, originally developed for aircraft armor systems, could decrease containment system weights while still providing the same degree of protection as existing systems. This technology would allow for the design of higher thrust-to-weight engines and be used either for new designs or for retrofit application for existing engines. This program concluded that ceramic liners do not improve the performance of metal or composite containment structures for turbine engine uncontainment when evaluated in terms of contained energy per unit weight.

Pages : 209
Book Description
Containment Systems: A Design Guide is the only book that covers containment, specifically for the process industries. This Guide covers the range of containment equipment from simple air-flow control devices to enclosures that restrict exposures to well below a microgram per cubic meter averaged over a working day. The selection of a particular containment system for a particular transfer operation can be difficult because of the wide choice available. This Guide provides a structured approach to the selection process. Covers the legislation for containment guidelines in the US, UK, and Europe Provides an exhaustive list of containment equipment, including chapters on maintenance and reliability Shows the engineer how to develop a containment strategy for his/her plant

Book Description
The objective of this program was to obtain parametric type data on advanced lightweight containment systems. These data were used to generate design methods and procedures necessary for the successful development of such systems. The methods thus developed were then demonstrated through the design of a lightweight containment system for a CF6 size engine. The containment concept evaluated consisted basically of a lightweight structural sandwich shell wrapped with dry Kevlar cloth. The initial testing was directed towards the determination of the amount of Kevlar required to result in threshold containment for a specific Set of test conditions. A relationship was then developed between the thickness required and the energy of the released blade so that the data could be used to design for conditions other than those tested. The remainder of the testing was directed towards the evaluation of a number of variations in the basic concept. Using the data from these tests, a lightweight containment design was made for a typical large turbofan engine. Based on this design, a weight saving in the range of 20% to 25% over current containment systems was projected.
