Abstract: This paper describes an investigation into the effect that passing wakes have on a separation bubble that exists on the pressure surface and near the leading edge of a low-pressure turbine ...

Abstract: Boundary layer measurements were performed on a cascade of the T106 high lift low-pressure (LP) turbine blades that was subjected to upstream wakes and a moving downstream potential field. Tests ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of an experimental study of the interaction between the suction surface boundary layer of a cascade of low-pressure (LP) turbine blades and a fluctuating downstream ...

Abstract: The interaction of a convected wake with a compressor blade boundary layer was investigated. Measurements within a single-stage compressor were made using an endoscopic PIV system, a surface ...

Abstract: This paper presents the design, manufacture, and testing of a new probe for the measurement of temperature and pressure in engine environments. The probe consists of a choked nozzle located ...

Abstract: This paper describes an investigation into the behavior of the pressure surface separation at midspan in a linear cascade. It is found that the pressure surface separation can be a significant ...

Abstract: This paper presents a new design methodology for strutted S-shaped compressor ducts that allows for more aggressive designs while maintaining current levels of duct loss. A baseline duct geometry ...

Abstract: This paper describes a new flow mechanism for the reduction in secondary flows in low pressure turbines using the benefit of contoured endwalls. The extensive application of contoured endwalls ...

Abstract: This paper describes a study of the interaction between the pressure surface separation and the secondary flow on low-pressure turbine blades. It is found that this interaction can significantly ...
