...Ahmed Farid Ayad Hassan; Fabian F. Müller; Markus Schatz; Damian M. Vogt Multi-channel casing (MC) shows promising results in controlling the performance of the radial turbines. It has neither movable parts nor complicated control mechanisms therefore it withstands higher thermal loads compared...

...Mahmood H. Alqefl; Kedar P. Nawathe; Pingting Chen; Rui Zhu; Yong W. Kim; Terrence W. Simon The first-stage turbine of a modern gas turbine is subjected to high thermal loads which lead to a need for aggressive cooling schemes to protect its components from melting. Endwalls are particularly...

... of particle retention as a function of a reduced set of independent variables relating to both the carrier gas flow and particle. Two-dimensional CFD simulations of particle deposition are performed on the General Electric E 3 nozzle guide vane using the existing, energy-based fouling of gas turbines (EBFOG...

...Kai Zhou; Chao Zhou Experimental and numerical methods were used to investigate the aerodynamic effects of a near-casing streamwise incoming vortex flow on the tip leakage flow of different tip geometries in an unshrouded high-pressure turbine. A flat tip, a cavity tip, and a suction side winglet...

...Marcel Börner; Reinhard Niehuis The results presented in this paper are based on experimental investigations on a generic transonic low pressure turbine profile at high subsonic exit Mach numbers. Here, the flow on the suction side reaches a maximum isentropic Mach number of approximately 1.2...

... are developed to deal with variations in the temperature profile and transient start time of each flow. The technique is applied to the analysis of the heat transfer within a low aspect ratio impingement channel with initial cross flow. Contributed by the International Gas Turbine Institute and presented...

...Jeffrey P. Bons Experimental measurements of skin friction c f and heat transfer (St) augmentation are reported for low speed flow over turbine roughness models. The models were scaled from surface measurements taken on actual, in-service land-based turbine hardware. Model scaling factors ranged...

...Markus Jo¨cker; Francois X. Hillion; Torsten H. Fransson; Ulf Wa˚hle´n This paper presents the detailed numerical analysis including parametric studies on the aerodynamic excitation mechanisms in a turbine stage due to the unsteady stator-rotor interaction. The work is part of the predesign study...
