Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Tip Leakage Flows in a Roots Blower [PDF]
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) can help in understanding the nature of leakage flow phenomena inside the rotary positive displacement machines (PDMs). However, due to the lack of experimental results, the analysis of leakage flows in rotary PDMs by CFD has not yet been fully validated.

Axial Flow Fan Tip Leakage Flow Control Using Tip Platform Extensions [PDF]
Performance of an axial flow fan unit is closely related to its tip leakage mass flow rate and level of tip/casing interactions. The present experimental study uses a stereoscopic particle image velocimeter to quantify the three dimensional mean flow observed near the blade tip, just downstream of a ducted fan unit. After a comprehensive description of

Flow behaviors in a Kaplan turbine runner with different tip clearances
Tip clearance between the runner blade tip and shroud in a Kaplan turbine is inevitable, and the tip leakage flow (TLF) and tip leakage vortex (TLV) induced by the tip clearance have a considerable effect on the flow behaviors.

Interference Effect of Shock Wave on Tip Leakage Vortex in a Transonic Variable Nozzle Turbine
The tip leakage flow at both sides of the nozzle vane is an important factor for the reduction in turbine aerothermal performance. A strong shock wave is generated at the trailing edge of the nozzle vane under transonic condition, which can interfere ...

Energy Performance and Flow Patterns of a Mixed-Flow Pump with Different Tip Clearance Sizes
Tip clearance between blade end and shroud is inevitable in pump operation and of great importance on pump energy performance and pressure fluctuation. As the tip clearance size increases, the head and efficiency of the mixed flow pump drop accordingly ...

Effects of tip-gap size on the tip-leakage flow in a turbomachinery cascade [PDF]
The effects of tip-gap size on the tip-leakage vortical structures and velocity and pressure fields are investigated using large-eddy simulation, with the objective of providing guidelines for controlling tip-leakage cavitation and viscous losses associated with the tip-leakage flow.
