Abstract: Nucleation of intergranular cracks during steady-state and cyclic creep is analyzed in detail. The basis of the analysis is that grain boundary sliding produces stress concentrations at inclusions, ...

Abstract: The experimental data are presented on the deposition of particulate on transpiration air-cooled turbine vanes operating in a cascade for a series of tests using distillate fuel contaminated ...

Abstract: Analytical and experimental investigations of the characteristics of three-dimensional turbulent wakes downstream of a turbomachinery rotor are reported in this paper. An approximate quasi-three-dimensional ...

Abstract: The effect of free stream turbulence on the characteristics of a turbulent wake developed from the trailing edge of a thin and smooth flat plate was studied analytically and experimentally. ...

Abstract: An analytical study is presented of the mean and turbulent characteristics of axial turbulent wakes behind a rotating fan. Simplified solutions are presented governing the mean radial and axial ...

Abstract: The experimental study reported in this paper was performed to acquire information on the distribution of wall shear stress and surface static pressure in a blade endwall corner. The blade ...
