Abstract: Unsteady blade row interactions play an important role in the performance of multistage turbomachinery. However, most aerodynamic optimizations of multistage turbomachinery are based on mixing-plane steady flow simulations. ...

Abstract: The wake vortex is an important origin of unsteadiness and losses in turbines. In this paper, the development and underlying mechanisms of the shedding vortex of a high-pressure transonic turbine vane are studied and ...

Abstract: In this work, the flows inside a high-pressure turbine (HPT) vane and stage are studied with a delayed detached eddy simulation (DDES) code. The fundamental nozzle/blade interaction is investigated with special attention ...

Abstract: One-dimensional laterally averaged adiabatic film cooling effectiveness η¯lat-based correlations have been widely employed in the cooling design of the modern gas turbine and aero-engine; however, the flow field of the ...

Abstract: The performance of film cooling is influenced by many parameters, and the nonuniform flow caused by the internal cooling system is found to largely affect the film cooling, which further complicates the in-hole flow and ...
