Abstract: This paper describes a coupled experimental and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) campaign conducted on a 1.5 intermediate turbine stage in the full range of operating conditions, from start-up to design point under ...

Abstract: In this work, the effects of turbine center frame (TCF) wakes on the aeromechanical behavior of the downstream low-pressure turbine (LPT) blades are numerically investigated and compared with the experimental data. A small ...
