Abstract: To enhance turbine efficiency, it is essential to mitigate the loss generated by irreversible phenomena taking place in turbine flows, including boundary layers, shock waves, vortices, and trailing edge wakes. A fast and ...

Abstract: Turbomachinery fan optimization is a complex multidisciplinary process, which forces engineers to rely on strong theoretical assumptions and/or can be very computationally expensive. Additionally, with new constraints ...

Abstract: The present work analyzes the three-dimensional unsteady flow structure of a low-speed low-pressure ratio axial fan stage operating at stall conditions. Unsteady numerical simulations were conducted with the elsA software, ...

Abstract: This study is carried out in the context of hot streak flows in high-pressure turbines, for which a correct prediction of the temperature evolution is required. The present work particularly focuses on the turbulence ...
