Key points

  • This report covers the second semiannual progress of the Supersonic Transport Lubrication System Investigation under NASA Contract NAS3-6267.
  • The investigation focuses on the performance of aircraft gas turbine main shaft ball bearings, seals, and lubricants under simulated supersonic transport engine conditions at Mach 3.
  • Two lubrication systems are being evaluated: a circulating oil system and a once-through oil mist system, both utilizing inert gas blanketing for high-temperature lubrication.
  • Five candidate lubricants for each lubrication system have been selected for screening evaluation, with 1000-hour endurance tests planned for the best oils.
  • The test systems are designed to operate at 14,000 RPM shaft speeds, 3,280 lbs thrust load, and temperatures ranging from 600°F to 800°F.
Frequently asked questions

Since only 8 small amount of perfluorodimethylcyclobutane was available, an ultrasonic bath had t o be used to mix such small quantities. This dictated a temperature of approximately &OF.
