Abstract: Due to the increasing fuel cost and environmental targets, the demand for more efficient gas turbines has risen considerably in the last decade. One of the most important systems in a gas turbine is the secondary air system, ...

Abstract: Due to the complexity of multiphase flows, they are often studied with numerical simulations. These simulations must be validated with experimental results. This paper introduces a new approach to initialize the continuous ...

Abstract: Centrifugal turbines have recently regained interest of the engineering community as they could serve as cost-effective alternatives in diverse energy applications. In this device, the working fluid expands in a centrifugal ...
