Abstract: There are two different but well known theories for calculating loss in the mixing process of the nonuniform flow discharged from the impeller, into the vaneless diffuser. One is by Dean and ...

Abstract: Ensemble-averaged and phase-locked flow patterns in various tip clearances of two axial compressor rotors were obtained by aperiodic multisampling technique with a hot wire in the clearance and ...

Abstract: Detailed measurements were made of the three-dimensional turbulent flow field behind an axial-flow rotating blade row. The flow was surveyed at 15 radial locations and 70 circumferential sampling ...

Abstract: Ice samples were extracted from a land-fast ice sheet of 90 cm thickness at Lutzow-Holm Bay in the Antarctica. The ice samples were then shipped to a cold room in Tokyo, and unconfined ...

Abstract: The behavior of the distorted flow discharged from a centrifugal impeller within a vaneless diffuser is examined theoretically by assuming small disturbances to a main flow. The inlet static ...

Abstract: The flow discharged from centrifugal impellers is highly distorted and its behavior in the diffuser could be expected to have a determining effect on the performance of the compressor. The ...

Abstract: Passive Control of the unstable characteristics of a high specific speed diagonal-flow fan has been proposed. It is possible to eliminate the unstable characteristics of the pressure-flow rate ...

Abstract: An implicit upwind scheme has been developed for Navier–Stokes simulations of unsteady flows in transonic cascades. The two-dimensional, Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations are discretized in ...

Abstract: The pressure fluctuations on the casing wall of two axial flow compressor rotors with various tip clearances have been analyzed by the use of two kinds of correlation functions. The behavior ...
