Abstract: Crossed hot wire probes are widely used for measuring two-dimensional flows. Many applications in fluid mechanics like turbomachinery require an angular range as large as possible and a reasonable ...

Abstract: This paper analyzes the operative characteristics of a three-hole cobra type probe especially designed to attain an angular range higher than 180deg for planar turbulent flows. A new calibration ...

Abstract: This paper is conceived as an extension in the analysis of the periodic stator-rotor interaction in a low-speed axial fan with inlet guide vanes. Here, the present work focuses on the ...

Abstract: The present study is focused on the analysis of the dynamic and periodic interaction between both fixed and rotating blade rows in a single stage, low-speed axial fan with inlet guide vanes. ...

Abstract: This paper analyzes the structure of turbulence and secondary flows at the exit of an axial flow fan with variable pitch blades. The influence of changing the blades’ pitch angle over the ...
