Aerodynamic design and numerical simulation of mixed-axial flow multi-stage compressor
[Objectives] The performance of a gas turbine engine can be determined by the performance of the compressor. As one of the core components of a gas turbine engine,the design of the compressor is of critical importance in the design of the engine overall.[

On the Flow in a Water Turbine of Axial Flow Type
The air test of a model of the propeller turbine was performed to reconsider the methods of designing Kaplan turbines by the usual two-dimensional treatments. The performances of it, the flow conditions at the inlet and outlet of the runner and the pressure distributions on the running blades were measured to compare with the ones of two-dimensional ...

Interaction of Rim Seal and Annulus Flows in an Axial Flow Turbine
A combined computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and experimental study of interaction of main gas path and rim sealing flow is reported. The experiments were conducted on a two stage axial turbine and included pressure measurements for the cavity formed between the stage 2 rotor disc and the upstream diaphragm for two values of the diaphragm-to-rotor ...

This study shows that superalloys used in aircraft engine disks become much more prone to deformation at high temperatures if they have been strained during manufacturing. This effect increases with the level of prior strain but eventually reaches a limit.

Secondary flow reduction techniques in linear turbine cascades [PDF]
This thesis investigates a novel secondary flow reduction method. The inlet boundary layer to a linear turbine cascade is skewed by injection of air through an upstream slot to oppose regular generated negative stream wise vorticity.

Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

Techno-Economic Analysis of Gas Turbine Compressor Washing to Combat Fouling [PDF]
Among the major deterioration problems a gas turbine encountered while in operation is compressor blade fouling. This is the accumulation and adhesion of dirt and sediment on the compressor blade which contributes between 70 to 85% of gas turbine ...
