Candent Technologies Inc is involved with the engineering, research, development and manufacturing of advanced small gas turbine engine technologies. The firm can design virtually any gas turbine engine components, up to and including complete engines, and can perform design and analysis as required on an expedited basis. Candent Technologies is developing advanced engine technology for the U.S. Army and is under contract to demonstrate its technology in a full-scale engine test program. A major capability available at Candent Technologies is the analysis of engine performance. The firm has state of the art engine-cycle-analysis tools able to determine engine performance at all potential conditions using the NASA Engine Performance Program. Engine design performance maps can be synthesized using these aerodynamic analysis tools in order to obtain very good off-design performance predictions prior to the first build of the component. The firm also has a complete suite of preliminary design synthesis tools for sizing and initial design of rotating and static engine aerodynamic components that were developed by NASA. These tools allow an engine or component to be quickly defined using basic 2D design parameters and provide excellent correlation to real world performance.
