Compressor Test Rigs are complex test systems used to measure the performance of axial, radial, or mixed-flow (axial-radial) compressors in aviation engines, generate compressor maps, and measure Tip Clearances and Blade Tip Timing.

When designing Compressor Test Rigs, they can be resized based on the number of stages, rotational speed, power, and diameter of the compressor to be tested, or they can be designed in full scale according to the infrastructure capacity. In terms of energy consumption, open-loop (blow-down) rigs are generally preferred for small-diameter or down-scaled test articles, while closed-loop (continuous) test rigs are preferred for large-scale, full-size test articles.

The testing processes of compressors, which are among the main components of aviation engines, are highly costly and critical. In addition to customized instrumentation designs and adaptation, precise data acquisition and control capabilities play a significant role in compressor map generation and compressor efficiency measurement tests.

E2T, in line with your Compressor Test Rig needs, not only develops open-loop or closed-loop compressor test rigs but also contributes to your development and testing processes with specialized instrumentation designs, precise data acquisition, and control solutions.
