Abstract: A comprehensive controlled study of the resonant vibratory structural response of a shrouded fan blade/disk due to known excitation was performed. A full circumferential definition of the inlet ...

Abstract: Basic experimental data has been obtained from a linear cascade of five turbine airfoil sections undergoing torsional oscillation. A high-turning subsonic/transonic cascade was tested and both ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation was conducted to determine the fluctuating pressure distribution on a stationary vane row, with the primary source of excitation being the wakes from the upstream ...

Abstract: The overall objective of this experimental program was to quantify the effects of rotor-stator axial spacing on the fundamental time-variant aerodynamics relevant to forced response in turbomachinery. ...

Abstract: The structural response of a bladed turbine disk due to excitation from an upstream stator row was measured using strain gages. Rig testing performed in a realistic aerodynamic environment was ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation was conducted to quantitatively determine the validity and applicability of state-of-the-art transverse gust cascade analyses. This was accomplished by obtaining fundamental ...
