Abstract: Blowing from the tip of a turbine blade was studied experimentally to determine if total pressure loss could be reduced. Experiments were done with a linear cascade in a low-speed wind tunnel. Total pressure drop through ...

Abstract: Measurements were made in zero pressure gradient turbulent boundary layers on a smooth wall, at momentum thickness Reynolds numbers, ranging from 800 to 6340. The experiments were conducted in a recirculating water tunnel. ...

Abstract: Film cooling experiments were conducted on a flat wall subject to favorable and adverse pressure gradients with a constant acceleration parameter, K. The test wall included a single row of five round holes in line with the ...
