Abstract: The optimization of the blade surface velocity distribution is promising for a reduction of turbine cascade losses. Theoretical and experimental investigations on three turbine cascades with the ...

Abstract: Reliable cascade data are esssential to the development of high-speed turbomachinery, but it has long been suspected that the tunnel environment influences the test results. This has now been ...

Abstract: In the continuing quest for increased turbine efficiency, the part played by blade profile shape remains crucial. Three turbine vanes with successively increased aerodynamic loading were tested ...
