Abstract: This paper presents the development and implementation of a new model for bypass and natural transition prediction using Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes computational fluid dynamics (CFD), based ...

Abstract: Recent experimental work has documented the importance of wake passing on the behavior of transitional boundary layers on the suction surface of axial compressor blades. This paper documents ...

Abstract: This paper documents a computational investigation of the aerodynamic impact of film cooling on a linear turbine airfoil cascade. The simulations were for single row injection on both the ...

Abstract: A proven computational methodology was applied to investigate film cooling from diffused holes on the simulated leading edge of a turbine airfoil. The short film-hole diffuser section was conical ...
