Uncertainty quantification of leakages in a multistage simulation and comparison with experiments [PDF]
The present paper presents a numerical study of the impact of tip gap uncertainties in a multistage turbine. It is well known that the rotor gap can change the gas turbine efficiency but the impact of the random variation of the clearance height has not ...
