Gas turbine shaft over-speed / failure modelling: aero/thermodynamics modelling and overall engine system response

Gas turbine design needs of high-speed turbomachinery whose layout is organised in compressor-turbine pairs mechanically linked by concentric shafts. The mechanical failure of a shaft leads to compressor-turbine decoupling provoking the acceleration of the free-running turbine. In view of such scena...
