Axial-Flow Compressors for Gas Turbines

Journal of Fluids Engineering, 1948
Abstract The development of the gas turbine during the last decade has opened a new field for compressor application. The compressor is an essential component of every gas-turbine power plant. It delivers air at some elevated pressure to the burner in sufficient quantity to maintain an efficient combustion of fuel and to cool the ...

Efficiency predictions for axial-flow turbines

International Journal of Mechanical Sciences, 1966
Abstract In order to compare the relative merits of various turbine geometries, computer programmes have been written for two loss-correlations and these have been used to predict both total-to-total and total-to-static turbine efficiencies over a wide range of geometries.

Throughflow Calculations for Transonic Axial Flow Turbines

Journal of Engineering for Power, 1978
The development of a streamline curvature throughflow program to predict the flow through the low pressure stages of large steam turbines is described. The program can also be used for gas turbines. Difficulties encountered in dealing with transonic flow and multiple high pressure ratio stages are discussed.

Axial flow turbine design for wind power

Solar & Wind Technology, 1989
Abstract This paper considers an axial flow turbine and a rear edge flanged diffuser to be used to harness wind energy. The drag of the rear edge of the diffuser can set up a pressure drop behind the axial flow turbine greater than the velocity head of the incoming wind.

Losses and efficiencies in axial-flow turbines

International Journal of Mechanical Sciences, 1960
Abstract Calculations of efficiencies of axial-flow steam turbines have been based for many years upon experimentally determined velocity coefficients. A great amount of uncorrelated data is available. Efficiency calculations for axial-flow gas turbines have been based on loss coefficients obtained from two-dimensional cascade tests, and some ...

Axial turbines and compressors for compressible flow

1984
The principal difference between axial turbines passing gases and their incompressible counterparts is the compressibility of the fluid being moved. The basic fluid mechanics is the same, and the profile behaviour information has already been covered in Chapter 3. The same can be said of compressors and blowers.
