Abstract: The flow fields for swirlers with and without a shroud were measured using a twocomponent laser-Doppler velocimeter (LDV) system. The primary goal of this study is to investigate the effect ...

Abstract: The results of an investigation of the particle dynamics and the blade erosion at the impact locations in radial turbine guide vanes are presented. Attention is focused in particular on the ...

Abstract: Initial drop size and velocity distributions, after complete disintegration of coaxial liquid jets, were determined by phase Doppler measurements. The measured radial distributions of Sauter mean ...
