ADVANCED GAS TURBINE (AGT) TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT. EIGHTH SEMIANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT, JULY-DECEMBER 1983

Project effort conducted under this contract is part of the DOE Gas Turbine Highway Vehicle System Program. This program is oriented at providing the United States automotive industry the high-risk long-range technology necessary to produce gas turbine engines for automobiles with reduced fuel consumption and reduced environmental impact. It is intended that technology resulting from this program reach the marketplace by the early 1990s. This report reviews the power sectin (metal and ceramic engine) effort conducted to date, followed by a review of the component/ceramic technology development. Appendices include reports of progress from Ford, AiResearch Casting Company, and the Carborundum Company. (ERA citation 10:016502) (ERA citation 10:016502)
