Axial Flow Fan Tip Leakage Flow Control Using Tip Platform Extensions [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fluids Engineering, 2010
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

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2021
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.

Influences of tip leakage flows on flow field at design condition in transonic centrifugal compressor with splitter blade

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2016
A tip leakage flow is well known to have predominant influence on a loss generation in a compressor. An impeller for a transonic centrifugal compressor is generally composed of the main and the splitter blades to gain the choke flow rate.

Visualized observations of trajectory and dynamics of unsteady tip cloud cavitating vortices in axial flow pump [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A large-scale perpendicular cavitating vortices (PCVs), at the trailing edge of attached cavitation on the blade suction side near the tip region, has been found recently due to the great impact on performance breakdown in an axial waterjet pump. However,

Interference Effect of Shock Wave on Tip Leakage Vortex in a Transonic Variable Nozzle Turbine

open access: yesInternational Journal of Turbomachinery, Propulsion and Power
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 ...

Investigation of the Shear Flow Effect and Tip Clearance on a Low Speed Axial Flow Compressor Cascade

open access: yesInternational Journal of Rotating Machinery, 2013
This paper explores the effect of inlet shear flow on the tip leakage flow in an axial flow compressor cascade. A flow with a high shear rate is generated in the test section of an open circuit cascade wind tunnel by using a combination of screens with a

Energy Performance and Flow Patterns of a Mixed-Flow Pump with Different Tip Clearance Sizes

open access: yesEnergies, 2017
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 ...

Large Tip Clearance Flows in High Pressure Stages of Axial Compressors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This thesis investigates over tip leakage where the tip clearance is large. In the high pressure stages of axial compressors the tip clearance can be typically 6% of span and the total blockage due to tip clearance can consume in excess of forty percent ...
