Cutback squealer tip trailing edge cooling performance

open access: yesInternational Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 2020
Abstract The trailing edge tip region has always been the most vulnerable part of high-pressure turbine blade. The requirements for both aerodynamic efficiency and cooling effectiveness make it a challenging task in turbine blade cooling design. A closely combined experimental and CFD effort, specifically focusing on trailing edge region, is reported

Desensitization of Tip Clearance Effects in Axial Flow Turbines

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2010
The present study aims to control the leakage flow and total pressure loss in high pressure turbines. A new tip shape is proposed. It is based on the triple squealer shape by adopting a new middle squealer, along the camber line, whose first and last ...

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

High-Pressure Turbine Aerodynamic Enhancement Using Rotor Tip Desensitization Technique

open access: yesEnergies
Turbines experience pressure losses from various sources, one of which is the tip leakage flow in the rotor blades. This is one of the main factors responsible for the decrease in turbine efficiency. This leakage is caused by pressure differences between
