BANGALORE: Kabini, the core of the much-delayed Kaveri engine, is undergoing high altitude testing at the Central Institute of Aviation Motors (CIAM) in Moscow. It has been taken by a team from the Bangalore-based Gas Turbine Research Establishment. Kabini primarily makes up Kaveri’s high pressure compressor, high pressure turbine and high pressure combustor. This is the second time that Kabini is taken to Moscow. The team is headed by GTRE director T. Mohan Rao. It is hoped that the tests will generate sufficient data to allow a study of the characteristics of the components. The GTRE had made a number of modifications to the Kabini since its last test in Moscow. Necessary stepWhile the tests in Moscow are a necessary step, as India does not have such high altitude testing facilities, the process to identify a partner who will co-develop and co-produce the Kaveri along with the GTRE has been further delayed.
