Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2022 Abstract Due to the structural design requirements, tip leakage flow is a common phenomenon in the field of axial flow rotating machinery. The tip leakage flow interacts with the mainstream and induce complex tip leakage vortex. When the local pressure drops to the saturation pressure, cavitation may occur in flow passage and the vortex ...

Tip Leakage Flow in Axial Compressors [PDF]
Journal of Turbomachinery, 1990 Experimental measurements in a linear cascade with tip clearance are complemented by numerical solutions of the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations in an investigation of tip leakage flow. Measurements reveal that the clearance flow, which separates near the entry of the tip gap, remains unattached for the majority of the blade chord when the tip

Fractal and Fractional, 2023 Axial-flow turbomachinery is widely used in low head water transfer and electricity generation projects. As there is a gap between the impeller and casing of the tubular flow unit, the fluid will cross the gap to form tip leakage flow, which may induce ...

Energies, 2021 To explain the effect of tip leakage flow on the performance of an axial-flow transonic compressor, the compressors with different rotor tip clearances were studied numerically. The results show that as the rotor tip clearance increases, the leakage flow

Influence of Blade Lean on Performance and Shock Wave/Tip Leakage Flow Interaction in a Transonic Compressor Rotor [PDF]
Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2022 Blade lean has been extensively used in axial compressor stators to control flow separations, but its influence mechanism on transonic compressor rotors remains to be revealed.

International Journal of Turbomachinery, Propulsion and Power, 2021 A Large-Eddy Simulation of the tip leakage flow of a single airfoil is carried out. The configuration consists of a non-rotating, isolated airfoil between two horizontal plates with a gap of 10 mm between the tip of the airfoil and the lower plate.

Shock Formation in Overexpanded Tip Leakage Flow [PDF]
Volume 1: Turbomachinery, 1992 Shock formation due to overexpansion of supersonic flow at the inlet to the tip clearance gap of a turbomachine has been studied. The flow was modelled on a water table using a sharp-edged rectangular channel. The flow exhibited an oblique hydraulic jump starting on the channel sidewall near the channel entrance.

Spectral proper orthogonal decomposition of compressor tip leakage flow [PDF]
Physics of Fluids, 2021 To identify the spatiotemporal coherent structure of compressor tip leakage flow, spectral proper orthogonal decomposition (SPOD) is performed on the near-tip flow field and the blade surface pressure of a low-speed compressor rotor. The data used for the SPOD analysis are obtained by delayed-detached eddy simulation, which is validated against the ...

Tip Leakage Flow in a Linear Turbine Cascade [PDF]
Journal of Turbomachinery, 1988 An experimental and analytical study of flow in the tip clearance gap of a linear turbine rotor blade cascade has been performed. Measurements of wall static pressures and flow velocities are used to verify a flow model involving a vena contracta, near the tip gap entrance, followed by flow mixing to fill the gap. A frequently referenced potential flow
