This report describes an effort undertaken to improve small gas turbine combustor design I techniques. This analytical procedure is viewed as a significant step toward reducing the design and development time and the cost associated with future Army gas turbine combustors while simultaneously achieving a more durable and fuel-efficient design. The reader is referred to the report documentation page for a description of each of the three volumes of this report. It Is considered worthy of widespread application with the turbine Industry. Any critique or other response regarding its use should be addressed to this agency. Mr. Kent Smith of the Propulsion Technical Area, Aeronautical Technology Division, served as Project Engineer for this effort.
