Abstract: Intakes of reduced length have been proposed with the aim of producing aero-engines with higher efficiency and reduced weight. As the intake length decreases, it is expected that stronger effects of the fan on the flow ...

Abstract: In this paper, we investigate the coupled interaction between a new short intake design with a modern fan in a high-bypass ratio civil engine, specifically under the off-design condition of high incidence. The interaction ...

Abstract: The measurement accuracy of the temperature/pressure probe mounted at the leading edge of a turbine/compressor blade is crucial for estimating the fuel consumption of a turbo-fan engine. Apart from the measurement error ...

Abstract: Leading edge instrumentation used in compressor and turbine blades for jet-engine test rigs can cause significant obstruction and lead to a marked increase in downstream pressure loss. Typical instrumentation used in such ...
