Abstract: This article presents conceptual design guidelines and results for a tail-integrated propulsion system for a turbo-electric civil transport aircraft with boundary layer ingestion (BLI). The aerodynamic performance goal is ...

Abstract: This paper describes a framework to quantify the effect of freestream turbulence, generated by mixing processes in a combustor, on turbulent boundary layer loss generation in the high-pressure turbine downstream of the ...

Abstract: Numerical simulations have been carried out to define the loss generation mechanisms associated with tip leakage in unshrouded axial turbines. Tip clearance vortex dynamics are a dominant feature of two mechanisms important ...
