Abstract: Producing a screen for use in generating an accurate, complex total pressure distortion involves solving two distinct problems. First, the basic loss characteristics of wire mesh screens must be established. Second, the ...

Abstract: The use of turning vanes spans multiple engineering disciplines such as aerospace, ocean, and biomedical to effectively turn an otherwise uniform flowfield and achieve desired downstream flow angles. The presented work ...

Abstract: In recent years, the StreamVane technology has developed into a mature and streamlined process that can reproduce swirl distortion for ground-test evaluation of fan and compressor performance and durability. A StreamVane ...
