Journal Article
Paleo Cageao, P., Simmons, K., Prabhakar, A., & Chandra, B. (2019). Assessment of the oil scoop capture efficiency in high speed rotors. Journal of Engineering for Gas Turbines and Power, 141(1), 012401. https://doi.org/10.1115/1.4040812

© 2019 by ASME. Experimental research was conducted into a scooped rotor system that captures oil from a stationary jet and directs it through passages within the shaft to another axial location. Such a system has benefits for delivering oil via unde... Read More about Assessment of the oil scoop capture efficiency in high speed rotors.

Mechanisms for residence volume reduction in shallow sump (2018)
Journal Article
Chandra, B., Simmons, K., & Murphy, A. (2018). Mechanisms for residence volume reduction in shallow sump. Journal of Engineering for Gas Turbines and Power, 140(3), https://doi.org/10.1115/1.4037871

© 2018 by ASME. Gas turbine aero-engines employ fast rotating shafts that are supported by bearings at several axial locations along the engine. Due to extreme load and heat, oil is injected to the bearings to aid lubrication and cooling. The oil is... Read More about Mechanisms for residence volume reduction in shallow sump.
