Description
Summary:This thesis document was issued under the authority of another institution, not NPS. At the time it was written, a copy was added to the NPS Library collection for reasons not now known. It has been included in the digital archive for its historical value to NPS. Not believed to be a CIVINS (Civilian Institutions) title. === It is the purpose of this paper to analyze the flow of combustion products through an exhaust-gas turbo-supercharger .,, It is also the purpose of this paper to investigate the flow downstream from the turbine rotor to the extent of determining exit velocities, and velocities in the flow path. The effect of such a flow disturbance will also be discussed with an eye to discovering what effect, if any, such a disturbance would have on the efficiency of the turbine.
