Mechanical components have a significant influence on the efficiency of a small gas turbine engine. Some of the performance losses associated with the design of the power transmission and internal air system are defined and discussed. Improvements in engine efficiency must be considered in conjunction with cost, reliability and size or weight. Many of the problems considered are applicable to gas turbines in general but become acute in small engines due to the adverse effects of scale on many component design parameters. To meet the increasing demand for more efficient powerplants the mechanical research engineer must improve the analysis of mechanical component behaviour to produce optimised engine designs.
