Prediction of Tip-Leakage Losses in Axial Turbines [PDF]
Existing methods for predicting the tip-leakage losses in turbomachinery are based on a variety of assumptions, many of which have not been fully verified experimentally. Recently, several detailed experimental studies in turbine cascades have helped to clarify the physics of the flow and provide data on the evolution of the losses.

On scaling method to investigate high-speed over-tip-leakage flow at low-speed condition [PDF]
Modern high-pressure turbine blades operate at high-speed conditions. The over-tipleakage (OTL) flow can be high-subsonic or even transonic. From the consideration of problem simplification and cost reduction, the OTL flow has been studied extensively in
