Effect of Leading/Trailing Edge Swept Impeller on Flow Characteristics of Low Specific Speed Centrifugal Compressor

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
A low specific speed centrifugal compressor with leading/trailing edge combined sweep blades is proposed. The performance and internal flow field characteristics are analyzed in detail by numerical simulations, and a bench test is carried out.

Aerodynamic behavior of an airfoil with morphing trailing edge for wind turbine applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The length of wind turbine rotor blades has been increased during the last decades. Higher stresses arise especially at the blade root because of the longer lever arm.

Design and Aerodynamic Authority Analysis of ContinuousTrailing-edge Flap for Helicopter Blade

open access: yesHangkong gongcheng jinzhan, 2018
Continuous trailing-edge flap has many advantages over conventional discrete flap in helicopter rotor vibration reduction applications, such as light weight, compact structure and stable airflow. Macro fiber composite is chosen as the actuating material.

Computer-Aided Simulations of Convective Heat Transfer in a Wedged Channel with Pin-Fins at Various Outlet Arrangements and Nonuniform Diameters

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2013
The turbine blade works at high thermal loads, especially the trailing edge of the blade due to the hot gas leakage flow. Pin-fins are well recognized as a kind of effective device to augment the convective heat transfer and effectively cool the trailing
