Abstract: Measurements of the unsteady flow field near and within a turbine rotor were made by means of a Laser-2-Focus velocimeter. The testing was performed in a single-stage cold-air turbine at ...

Abstract: In highly loaded turbines with large hub/tip ratios there is a marked increase in secondary flow effects. The optimization of the turbine flow requires detailed knowledge both of three-dimensional ...

Abstract: The flow in the rotor blades of a five-stage low-pressure turbine was investigated experimentally using hot-film probes. Time averaging, Fourier transforms, and ensemble averaging are applied for ...

Abstract: Nonintrusive measurements near and within the rotor of a cold-air turbine showed a sudden increase of turbulence energy when the wake portion of the incoming fluid entered the rotor. It has ...

Abstract: Detailed measurements were carried out near and within a turbine rotor using the Laser-2-Focus velocimeter. Testing was performed in a single stage cold air turbine at off-design conditions with ...

Abstract: An ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) is commonly used to help subjects with weakness of ankle dorsiflexor muscles due to peripheral or central nervous system disorders. Both these disorders are due to ...
