| dc.description.abstract | The deployment of Micro Gas Turbine (MGT) engines in unmanned aerial vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and small power plant applications is increasingly becoming popular due to their high power to weight ratios. In this paper, MGT performance evaluation is investigated for the Baird Micro Turbine 120 Kerosene Start engine (BMT 120 KS). This investigation involves component matching of the engine and its modifications. Analytical and numerical approaches were employed to review the thermodynamic cycle of the engine. The performance predictions of the engine and its modifications were found to correlate well with available engine experimental data | en_US |
