Numerical Investigation on Mechanism of Swirling Flow of the Prefilming Air-Blast Fuel Injector

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
Prefilming air-blast atomizers are widely used in modern gas turbine combustors. Due to insufficient awareness of the coupling mechanism of multi-stage swirling flow in gas turbines, there is a lack of effective methods for flow field optimization in ...

Collectives' Duties and Collectivization Duties [PDF]

open access: yesAustralasian Journal of Philosophy, 2013
Plausibly, only moral agents can bear action-demanding duties. This places constraints on which groups can bear action-demanding duties: only groups with sufficient structure-call them collectives-have the necessary agency. Moreover, if duties imply ability then moral agents (of both the individual and collectives varieties) can bear duties only over ...

Unsteady Effects of Wake on Downstream Rotor at Low Reynolds Numbers

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
In a compressor, the periodic wake is an inherently unsteady phenomenon that affects the downstream flow conditions and loading distribution. Thus, understanding the physical mechanisms of these unsteady effects is important for eliminating flow losses ...

Flow Mechanism of a New Concept Transonic Tandem Fan Stage under the Design and Off-Design Conditions

open access: yesAerospace, 2022
A detailed numerical simulation of a transonic tandem fan stage was conducted, and the change rule of the flow structure inside the fan stage under the design and off-design conditions was discussed to determine the internal flow mechanisms.

Influence of Upstream Sweeping Wake Number on the Unsteady Flow Mechanism in an Integrated Aggressive Intermediate Turbine Duct

open access: yesMachines, 2023
This paper focuses on the dynamic internal flow in the integrated aggressive intermediate turbine duct (AITD) with different HPT wake numbers, using CFX Solver with dynamic Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations (RANS), the shear stress transmission κ-
