Popis: This paper presents an analytical method to determine various main parameters or performances of engine components when those parameters cannot be directly measured and it is necessary to determine them. Additionally, some variants of instrumentation methods are presented, for example: engine inlet, compressor, turbine or jet nozzle instrumentation. The purpose of the instrumentation methods is to directly measure the possible parameters, which are then used as inputs in a model to determine other parameters or performance metrics. This model is based on gasodynamic process equations, and it is used to compute the air and gas parameters, such as enthalpy and entropy, which are described in polynomial form, thus leading to a more realistic calculation. At the end, this paper presents a practical example of instrumentation applied on a Klimov TV2-117A turboshaft, with a series of experimental results, following the engine testing on the test bench.
