The Influence of Simulated Purge Flow on the Secondary Flow of a Low-Speed Turbine Cascade [PDF]
The present thesis documents experimental measurements of a low-speed linear turbine cascade. The overall objective of the thesis was to enhance the understanding of turbine near endwall flows, termed secondary flows. Of particular interest were the loss

Effect of Ingress on Flow and Heat Transfer Upstream and Downstream of a Rotating Turbine Disc
Ingress is the penetration of a hot mainstream gas in a turbine annulus through the rim seal into the wheel-space between the rotating turbine disc (the rotor) and the adjacent stationary casing (the stator).

Humidity Control for Front Opening Unified Pod after Opening Its Door in a Mini-Environment
Wafers are usually placed in a front opening unified pod (FOUP) while waiting in the line of manufacturing processes; a conventional way for preventing (or removing) contamination is to purge an FOUP with a gas, so as to maintain the cleanliness level ...

Pricing and Unresponsive Flows Purging for Global Rate Enhancement
Pricing‐based Active Queue Management (AQM), such as Random Exponential Marking (REM), outperforms other probabilistic counterpart techniques, like Random Early Detection (RED), in terms of both high utilization and negligible loss and delay. However, the pricing‐based protocols do not take account of unresponsive flows that can significantly alter the

Numerical Study of Purge and Secondary Flows in a Low-Pressure Turbine [PDF]
The secondary flow increases the loss and changes the flow incidence in the downstream blade row. To prevent hot gases from entering disk cavities, purge flows are injected into the mainstream in a real aero-engine. The interaction between purge flows and the mainstream usually induces aerodynamic losses.
