Abstract: Heat transfer measurements have been made on a transonic turbine blade undergoing natural transition and with a simulation of the effect of NGV wake interactions. The use of wide bandwidth ...

Abstract: Results are presented illustrating the detailed behavior of the suction surface boundary layer of a transonic gas turbine rotor in a two-dimensional cascade under the influence of both free-stream ...

Abstract: Conventionally, high-pressure turbine blading is optimized for aerodynamic performance without any film cooling applied to the surfaces of the blades. It is considered that modern boundary layer ...

Abstract: The effect of the interaction of the wake from a nozzle guide vane with the rotor may be simulated in part by means of a stationary rotor and a moving wake system. This technique is applied ...
