Abstract: This paper discusses the problem of measuring unsteady pressure in a high-temperature environment using standard transducers. Commercially available cooling adapters for these transducers use water ...

Abstract: Detailed measurements using pneumatic probe traverses, blade static pressure tappings, and laser anemometry are made in the third stage of a large-scale, low-speed, four-stage, axial flow, research ...

Abstract: An experimental study of wedge probe wall proximity effects is described in Part 1 of this paper. Actual size and large-scale model probes were tested to understand the mechanisms responsible ...

Abstract: Conventional three-hole wedge probes fail to measure the correct static pressure when operating in close proximity to a wall or boundary through which the probe is inserted. The free-stream ...

Abstract: Self-induced flow occurs when a tube, open at one end and sealed at the other, is rotated about its central axis: Fluid flows along the axis from the open end toward the sealed end and ...

Abstract: This paper provides a review of recently published research on self-induced flow and heat transfer in a rotating tube, together with additional theoretical work on heat transfer to the cylindrical ...

Abstract: Effects of tip clearance, secondary flow, skew, and corner stall on the performance of a multistage compressor with controlled diffusion blading have been studied experimentally. Measurements ...
