Abstract: A detailed two-component LDV mapping of the flow through a controlled diffusion compressor cascade at low Mach number ( ~ 0.25) and Reynolds number of about 7 × 105 , at three inlet ...

Abstract: The flow from a high-speed rotor in a rotor-first arrangement has been measured using a “dual-probe, digital sampling (DPDS)” technique. The flow field was found to be steady in rotor coordinates ...

Abstract: The midspan section of a previously reported controlled-diffusion compressor stator has been experimentally evaluated in cascade. Measurements were taken over a range of incidence angles for blade ...

Abstract: The results of two component laser-Doppler velocimeter (LDV) surveys made in the near wake (to one fifth chord) of a controlled diffusion (CD) compressor blade in a large-scale cascade wind ...

Abstract: This paper describes the effect of tip clearance changes on the pressure at the case wall of a second-stage rotor. Wall shear distributions under the rotor tip are also presented. The results ...
