Abstract: The over tip leakage flow in an unshrouded compressor blade row is highly three dimensional, yet in order for aerodynamicists to analyze and improve designs, they must be able to simplify the problem down to a limited ...

Abstract: The need to reduce fuel-burn and emissions is pushing turbofan engines toward geared architectures with higher bypass ratios and small ultrahigh-pressure ratio cores. However, this increases the radial offset between ...
