The United States Navy has committed itself to gas turbine power systems for a number of its presentday ships. Although gas turbine theory and practice have long been a part of the curriculum at the U.S. Naval Academy, it recently has become essential to expand classroom and laboratory programs. The graduating navel officer, regardless of educational major must have a background that familiarizes him not only with the theory of gas turbines, but with the actual running of such machinery. Special problems associated with applying gas turbines to shipboard conditions must be understood and appreciated. This paper traces the history of the use of gas turbine laboratories in supporting classroom work at the U.S. Naval Academy. Two levels of educational effort are addressed: a) gas turbine theory and laboratory exercises for the engineering major, and b) gas turbine theory and laboratory exercises for the non-engineering major. Programs for both classes of students are explained including sample laboratory exercises and typical results. (Kursetz)
