Abstract: There are few published papers about the flow-induced vibration caused by two-phase flow. Especially, the experimental data at high-pressure and high-temperature conditions which corresponds to the ...

Abstract: Fluidelastic vibration of a tube array caused by two-phase flow has been reported in some papers. The critical flow velocity is usually estimated with a simple Connors-type criterion which is ...

Abstract: As part of the Westinghouse-MHI 501F development program, a new 16-stage axial flow compressor has been designed. Reported here are elements of the aerodynamic and mechanical design as well as ...
