Control of Tip Leakage Flow in Axial Flow Compressor Cascade by Suction on the Blade Tip

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2018
One of the important ways of improving axial compressor performance is to control the tip leakage flow near the endwall region. Numerical computations were conducted to investigate the impact of blade tip suction on the axial compressor cascade ...

Fast-moving Mesh Method and Its Application to Circumferential Non-uniform Tip Clearance in a Single-stage Turbine [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics
The circumferential non-uniform tip clearance (CNTC) due to casing out-of-roundness adversely affects the turbine aerodynamic performance due to machining and assembly errors, thermal deformation, and improper active clearance control (ACC), etc ...

Effects of cutback squealer tips on the vortices and local loss in the tip region of axial turbine rotor

open access: yesPropulsion and Energy
Tip leakage loss is a significant source of aerodynamic loss in the turbine rotor and can be controlled by using a cavity tip. In this paper, three configurations with cutback rims are numerically investigated to control the formation and development of ...

PIV-Based Analysis of Internal Flow Evolution and Coherent Structures in a Semi-Open Axial Flow Fan

open access: yesMachines
The internal flow of a semi-open axial flow fan is highly three-dimensional and unsteady due to the absence of a confined passage. The evolution of complex vortical structures, such as the tip leakage vortex (TLV) and corner separation vortex (CSV ...

Study on the Influence of Tip Clearance on Cavitation Performance and Entropy Production of an Axial Flow Pump

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
The clearance existing between the impeller rim and the adjacent shroud within the pump configuration establishes conducive circumstances for the initiation of cavitation. The bubbles generated by cavitation will flow forward with the water, blocking the
