The SAMULET Programme: Advanced Transmission Systems: Project 3

SAMULET项目3计划旨在开发变速器和结构涡轮机械技术。该项目将提供新技术，以实现制造成本效益设计、部件寿命分析、部件优化制造和检查。项目内生命周期管理活动中的首要挑战是为设计决策过程提供高质量、足够准确和及时的信息，以实现价值最大化、发展生命周期知识并了解产品的环境影响。该项目利用劳斯莱斯大学技术中心(UTC)的能力以及劳斯莱斯的专业知识来开发变速器和结构技术，以支持未来的发动机架构。这些包括用于增加发动机负荷的新型航空航天齿轮材料；先进的航空航天结构制造技术和技术；航空发动机轴承腔性能的流体系统建模；先进密封的动态建模；生命周期知识和环境影响管理系统。

The SAMULET Project 3 programme is defined to develop transmissions and structures turbo-machinery technologies. This project will deliver novel technology enabling cost effective design for manufacture, component life analysis, part optimised manufacture and inspections. The overarching challenge within the lifecycle management activities within the project is to feed the design decision-making process with good quality, sufficiently accurate and timely information to maximise value, develop lifecycle knowledge and understand the environmental impact of the product. The project utilises the capabilities of the Rolls-Royce University Technology Centres (UTCs) coupled with Rolls-Royce’s expertise to develop transmissions and structures technology technologies to support the engine architectures of the future. These include new aerospace gear materials for increased engine duty; advanced aerospace structure manufacturing techniques and technologies; fluids system modelling of aero-engine bearing chamber performance; dynamic modelling of advanced sealing; lifecycle knowledge and environmental impact management systems.
