Abstract: Nonharmonic acoustic resonance was detected in the static pressure and sound signals in a four-stage high-speed axial compressor when the compressor was operating close to the surge limit. Based ...

Abstract: The correct prediction of the temperature distribution is a prerequisite for the reliable determination of species and current distributions in any solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) model. It is ...

Abstract: The knowledge of the stress distribution in the ceramic components of a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is a prerequisite for assessing the risk of failure due to crack formation as well as ...

Abstract: Airfoil active flow control has been attempted in the past in order to increase the permissible loading of boundary layers in gas turbine components. The present paper presents a stator with ...

Abstract: In centrifugal compressors, variable inlet guide vanes (IGVs) are used to control the mass flow rate with negligible change in pressure ratio and shaft speed. The efficient operation of IGVs ...
