Numerical simulation of the compressible flow through a turbine cascade is studied in the present paper. The numerical solution is performed on self-adaptive unstructured meshes by an implicit method. Computational codes have been developed for solving Euler as well as Navier-Stokes equations with various turbulence modelling. The Euler and Navier-Stokes codes have been applied on a standard turbine cascade, and the computed results are compared with experimental results. A hybrid scheme is used for spatial discretization, where the inviscid fluxes are discretized using a finite volume method while the viscous fluxes are calculated by central differences. A MUSCL-type approach is used for achieving higher-order accuracy. The effects of the turbulent stress terms in the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations have been studied with two different models: an algebraic turbulence model (Baldwin-Lomax model) and a two-equation turbulence model ( k-ɛ model). The system of linear equations is solved by a Gauss-Seidel algorithm at each step of time integration. A new treatment of the non-reflection boundary condition is applied in the present study to make it consistent with the finite volume flux calculation and the implicit time discretization.

In the last decade, discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods have been the subject of extensive research efforts because of their excellent performance in the high-order accurate discretization of advection-diffusion problems on general unstructured grids, and are nowadays finding use in several different applications. In this paper, the potential offered by a high-order accurate DG space discretization method with implicit time integration for the solution of the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations coupled with the k-ω turbulence model is investigated in the numerical simulation of the turbulent flow through the well-known T106A turbine cascade. The numerical results demonstrate that, by exploiting high order accurate DG schemes, it is possible to compute accurate simulations of this flow on very coarse grids, with both the high-Reynolds and low-Reynolds number versions of the k-ω turbulence model.

An implicit time-marching higher-order accurate finite-difference method for solving the two-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations was applied to the numerical analyses of steady and unsteady, subsonic and transonic viscous flows through gas turbine cascades with trailing edge coolant ejection. Annular cascade tests were carried out to verify the accuracy of the present analysis. The unsteady aerodynamic mechanisms associated with the interaction between the trailing edge vortices and shock waves and the effect of coolant ejection were evaluated with the present analysis.
