Effect of V-shaped Ribs on Internal Cooling of Gas Turbine Blades [PDF]
Thermal efficiency and power output of gas turbines increase with increasing turbine rotor inlet temperature. The rotor inlet temperatures in most gas turbines are far higher than the melting point of the blade material.

Influence of Thermodynamic Effect on Blade Load in a Cavitating Inducer
Distribution of the blade load is one of the design parameters for a cavitating inducer. For experimental investigation of the thermodynamic effect on the blade load, we conducted experiments in both cold water and liquid nitrogen.

Aeroelastic Characteri stics of Rotor Blades with Trailing Edge Flaps
The aeroelastic analysis of rotor blades with trailing edge flaps, focused on reducing vibration while minimizing control effort, are investigated using large deflection-type beam theory in forward flight. The rotor blade aerodynamic forces are calculated using two-dimensional quasi-steady strip theory. For the analysis of forward flight, the nonlinear

Numerical Studies on a NACA0018 Airfoil Blade HAWT with Trailing Edge Jet Flow
This study analyzed an airfoil blade for a horizontal-axis wind turbine (HAWT) with a trailing-edge jet flow design. This design was realized by drilling a hole in the trailing edge of an NACA0018 blade of a conventional HAWT to serve as a pressure ...

Trailing Edge Loss of Choked Organic Vapor Turbine Blades
The present study reports the outcome of an experimental study of organic vapor trailing edge flows. As a working fluid, the organic vapor Novec 649 was used under representative pressure and temperature conditions for organic Rankine cycle (ORC) turbine applications characterized by values of the fundamental derivative of gas dynamics below unity.
