Abstract: Shroud leakage flow undergoes little change in the tangential velocity as it passes over the shroud. Mixing due to the difference in tangential velocity between the main stream flow and the ...

Abstract: Three-dimensional steady multistage calculations, using the mixing plane approach, are compared with experimental measurement in a low-speed three-stage model turbine. The comparisons are made with ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of a numerical and experimental investigation of the unsteady pressure field in a three-stage model of a high pressure steam turbine. Unsteady surface pressure ...

Abstract: This paper numerically investigates the interaction between multiple can combustors and the first vane in an industrial gas turbine with 16 can combustors and 32 vanes in order to find ways ...

Abstract: Imperfections in the turbine annulus geometry, caused by the presence of the shroud and associated cavity, have a significant influence on the aerodynamics of the main passage flow path. In ...

Abstract: The geometry of the exit shroud cavity where the rotor shroud leakage flow reenters the main passage flow is very important due to the dominant influence of the leakage flow on the aerodynamics ...
