Abstract: This paper presents detailed results of the three-dimensional kinematic flow detail in a centrifugal compressor impeller of common form with inducer and straight radial blade tip sections. The ...

Abstract: The paper demonstrates the operational feasibility of obtaining flow detail through turbomachine blade passages by working iteratively with existing two-dimensional computer programs which solve ...

Abstract: A finite difference method of blade-to-blade calculation for incompressible turbulent, viscous flow through radial turbomachines having log-spiral blades lying entirely in the r-θ plane is presented. ...
