Impeller Design of a Centrifugal Fan with Blade Optimization

open access: yesInternational Journal of Rotating Machinery, 2011
A method is presented for redesigning a centrifugal impeller and its inlet duct. The double-discharge volute casing is a structural constraint and is maintained for its shape. The redesign effort was geared towards meeting the design volute exit pressure

Velocity measurements in the vicinity of the exit and inlet of a spiral bevel gear shroud [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In many aeroengines the accessory power offtake is achieved using a spiral bevel gear set running off one of the main shafts. The crown and bevel gears are housed in an internal gearbox. Over the past few years the Nottingham University Technology Centre

Numerical simulation of turbulent flow between shrouded contra-rotating disks [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2016
The turbulent flow between shrouded contra-rotating disks was numerically studied with a two-layer turbulence model and a modified Launder–Sharma low-Reynolds number k- ε model. The dissipation rate decrease caused by solid body rotation was considered in the second model.

Aspects of plane waves and Taub-NUT as exact string theory solutions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This thesis is a study of some aspects of string theory solutions that are exact in the inverse string tension ɑ', and thus are valid beyond the low-energy limit.

Transient Hydrodynamic Characteristics of a High-Speed Axial Flow Water-Jet Pump during Variable Speed Process

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
To investigate the transient characteristics of high-speed axial flow water-jet pumps during start-up and emergency acceleration as well as to analyze how different accelerations affect the performance of internal flow, the k–ω turbulence model of the ...

Analysis of Windage Losses and Velocity Distribution for a Shrouded Rotating Disk [PDF]

open access: yesVolume 1: Turbomachinery, 1987
An analysis of experimental results was carried out, establishing a direct correlation between measured velocity profiles and windage losses for a rotating disk inside a shrouded stator as typically found in turbomachinery. The analysis gives information on the regions of the rotating and static parts, which have a dominant effect upon ...

Some Observations on the Computational Sensitivity of Rotating Cavity Flows

open access: yes, 2021
Across the open literature, there is no clear consensus on what the most suitable modeling fidelity is for rotating cavity flows. Although it is a widely held opinion that unsteady Reynolds-averaged-Navier–Stokes (URANS) approaches are unsuitable, many ...

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of a Novel Vortex Reducer in a Co-Rotating Cavity of Aeroengines

open access: yesAerospace
Improving airflow pressure is of great significance for the cooling and sealing of aeroengines. In a co-rotating cavity with radial inflow, vortex reducers are used to decrease the pressure drop. However, the performance of traditional vortex reducers is
