Behavior of the Blade Tip Vortices of a Wind Turbine Equipped with a Brimmed-Diffuser Shroud
To clarify the behavior of the blade tip vortices of a wind turbine equipped with a brimmed-diffuser shroud, called a “Wind-Lens turbine”, we conducted a three-dimensional numerical simulation using a large eddy simulation (LES ...

EFFECT OF FORCED ROTATING VANELESS DIFFUSERS ON CENTRIFUGAL COMPRESSOR STAGE PERFORMANCE [PDF]
Non-uniform flow at the exit of the centrifugal impeller mixes in the vaneless space of the diffuser causing a rise in static pressure as well as significant loss of total pressure.

Numerical Study On Parametrical Design Of Long Shrouded Contra-Rotating Propulsion System In Hovering [PDF]
The parametrical study of Shrouded Contra-rotating Rotor was done in this paper based on 2D axisymmetric simulations. The calculations were made with an actuator disk as double rotor model. It objects to explore and quantify the effects of different shroud geometry parameters mainly using the performance of power loading (PL), which could evaluate the ...

Flow and Heat Transfer in Rotating Compressor Cavities With Inverted Shroud-Throughflow Temperature Differences [PDF]
Abstract In an aero-engine compressor, co-rotating discs form cavities that interact with an axial throughflow of secondary air at low radius. In the high-pressure (HP) compressor the shroud is hotter than the throughflow (directed downstream to the turbine) and the radial temperature gradient creates buoyancy-induced flow at Grashof ...

A Review of Turbine and Compressor Aerodynamic Forces in Turbomachinery
Aerodynamic forces due to blade-tip clearance eccentricity are a known destabilizing source in rotating machinery with unshrouded impellers. Dynamic forces also appear in shrouded impellers, due to changes in the pressure in the gap between the impeller ...
