Abstract: Turbine inlet conditions in lean-burn aeroengine combustors are highly swirled and present nonuniform temperature distributions. Uncertainty and lack of confidence associated with combustor-turbine interaction affect ...

Abstract: In the recent years Additive Manufacturing (AM) methods, such as the Direct Metal Laser Melting (DMLM) technology, are getting more and more attractive and feasible for the realization of components and subcomponents of ...

Abstract: The pronounced nonuniform temperature distribution in the core engine flow path is a recurring problem of gas turbine engine design process. Specifically, turbine entry conditions are usually characterized by severe ...

Abstract: Film-cooling injection significantly affects the thermal behavior of turbine vane surfaces. In addition to the beneficial effect of the film shielding the vane from the hot gas flow, alteration of the thermal boundary layer ...

Abstract: Modern gas turbines present important temperature distortions in the core-engine flowpath, mainly in the form of hot and cold streaks imputed to combustor burners and components cooling systems. As they highly influence ...
