Abstract: Time-mean endwall heat transfer and flow-field data in the endwall region are presented for a turbulent juncture flow formed with a symmetric bluff body. The experimental technique employed ...

Abstract: Here we report on an effort to include an empirically based transition modeling capability in a Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes solver. Well known empirical models for both attached- and ...

Abstract: Instantaneous flow topology and the associated endwall heat transfer in the leading-edge endwall region of a symmetric airfoil are presented. An experimental technique was employed that allowed ...

Abstract: Experimental measurements of the mean and turbulent flow field were preformed downstream of a low-speed linear turbine cascade. The influence of turbulence on the production of secondary losses ...

Abstract: This paper examines experimentally the effects of an upstream cavity on the flow structures and secondary losses in a transonic linear turbine cascade. The cavity approximates the endwall geometry ...

Abstract: An approach to endwall contouring has been developed with the goal of reducing secondary losses in highly loaded axial flow turbines. The present paper describes an experimental assessment of ...

Abstract: The ability to predict boundary layer transition locations accurately on turbomachinery airfoils is critical both to evaluate aerodynamic performance and to predict local heat-transfer coefficients ...
