SummaryA theory of the incompressible flow through two- and three-dimensional cascade actuator discs has been developed by several workers over the past ten years, and its accuracy has been confirmed in several experiments. This theory is briefly reviewed, and a parallel theory for subsonic compressible flow through actuator discs is developed. Approximate solutions for several examples are considered, including a compressible shear flow through a two-dimensional cascade, and a compressible flow through an annular cascade of guide vanes.

A method for calculating three-dimensional, time-dependent, inviscid, subsonic flow is presented. Application is made to flow through the rotor of a small radial inflow turbine and comparison with conventional through-flow calculations and experimental results is made. The nature of the strong secondary flow in this rotor indicates the probable inadequacy of the two-dimensional calculations which is confirmed by the comparison.

Evaluation of two-dimensional, inviscid, compressible flow through a cascade of airfoils must involve numerical methods. Some of the associated problems are avoided if the flow field is mapped to the interior of a unit circle as the airfoil boundaries become grid points of the regular array in this domain. Further, far upstream and far downstream map to points in this circle so the uniform inlet and outlet flows are simply defined. For a solution obtained in terms of a stream function the compressible flow may be derived as a numerical perturbation from an analytical, incompressible stream function. A method incorporating these features is described in detail and some results for thick, cambered airfoils in cascade are presented. As supersonic patches can exist on the airfoils for high subsonic inlet Mach numbers, a unique method of relating the density to the stream function is employed in order to enable such flows to be calculated.

This chapter is concerned primarily with the flow of a compressible fluid through stationary and moving blading, for the most part using the analysis introduced in Chapter 11. The principles of dimensional analysis are applied to determine the appropriate non-dimensional parameters to characterise the performance of a turbomachine. The analysis of incompressible flow through a linear cascade of aerofoil-like blades is followed by the analysis of compressible flow. Velocity triangles for flow relative to blades, and Euler’s turbomachinery equation, are introduced to analyse flow through a rotor. The concepts introduced are applied to the analysis of an axial-turbomachine stage comprising a stator and a rotor, which applies to either a compressor or a turbine.

The conditions for the equilibrium of two vortexes in a two-dimensional flow through a duct or diffuser are derived. Potential-flow considerations and a few basic results from viscous-flow theory are used for the discussion of the role of cusps as separation control and trapping devices for standing vortexes. The investigations are applied to cusp diffusers especially with regard to the wind tunnel of the James Forrestal Research Center of Princeton University.


In this work, bifurcation characteristics of unsteady, viscous, Newtonian laminar flow in two-dimensional sudden expansion and sudden contraction-expansion channels have been studied for different values of expansion ratio. The governing equations have been solved using finite volume method and FLUENT software has been employed to visualize the simulation results. Three different mesh studies have been performed to calculate critical Reynolds number (Recr) for different types of bifurcation phenomena. It is found that Recr decreases with the increase in expansion ratio (ER).
