Predicting the Performance of Turbine Exhaust Diffuser-Collector Systems Across the Operating Range: Comparison of Lattice-Boltzmann Method Simulations With Experiments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The predictive capability of the lattice-Boltzmann very large eddy simulation (LBM-VLES) methodology was evaluated for industrial gas turbine exhaust diffuser-collector applications. The effort focused on evaluating the ...
A Sensitivity Study of Gas Turbine Exhaust Diffuser-Collector Performance at Various Inlet Swirl Angles and Strut Stagger Angles
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes studies completed using a quarter-scaled rig to assess the impact of turbine exit swirl angle and strut stagger on a turbine exhaust system consisting of an integral diffuser-collector. Advanced testing ...
The Experimental Studies of Improving the Aerodynamic Performance of a Turbine Exhaust System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Analysis and testing were conducted to optimize an axial diffuser–collector gas turbine exhaust. Two subsonic wind tunnel facilities were designed and built to support this program. A 1/12th scale test rig enabled rapid ...
An Experimental Investigation of the Performance Impact of Swirl on a Turbine Exhaust Diffuser/Collector for a Series of Diffuser Strut Geometries
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A comprehensive experimental investigation was initiated to evaluate the aerodynamic performance of a gas turbine exhaust diffuser/collector for various strut geometries over a range of inlet angle. The test was conducted ...
