Abstract: The compressors of power-generation gas turbines (GTs) have a high stage count, blades with low aspect ratios, and large clearances. These features promote strong secondary flows. An important outcome deriving from the ...

Abstract: The current industrial standard for numerical simulations of axial compressors is the steady Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) approach. Besides the well-known limitations of mixing planes, namely their inherent ...
