The analysis of data obtained from sweep-frequency testing of the 585 turbojet combustor is discussed.Bode plots of the response of combustor pressure to sinusoidal disturbances in fuelspray- nozzle pressure are presented for a range of fuel flows. An analog simulation was developed and used to match the experimental data and to identify the combustion dynamics. The effects of primary or burning-zone fuel-to-air ratio on the system response were also investigated. The experimental data were fit by linear transfer function forms to be used in overall system studies.

A nonlinear analog simulation of a turbojet engine was developed. The purpose of the study was to establish simulation techniques applicable to propulsion system dynamics and controls research. A schematic model was derived from a physical description of a J85-13 turbojet engine. Basic conservation equations were applied to each component along with their individual performance characteristics to derive a mathematical representation. The simulation was mechanized on an analog computer. The simulation was verified in both steady-state and dynamic modes by comparing analytical results with experimental data obtained from tests performed at the Lewis Research Center with a J85-13 engine. In addition, comparison was also made with performance data obtained from the engine manufacturer. The comparisons established the validity of the simulation technique.
