Compressibility Effects

A three-dimensional inviscid flow analysis in the combined scroll-nozzle system of a radial inflow turbine is presented. The coupling of the two turbine components leads to a geometrically complicated, multiply-connected flow domain. Nevertheless, this coupling accounts for the mutual effects of both elements on the three-dimensional flow pattern throughout the entire system. Compressibility effects are treated for an accurate prediction of the nozzle performance. Different geometrical configurations of both the scroll passage and the nozzle region are investigated for optimum performance. The results corresponding to a sample scroll-nozzle configuration are verified by experimental measurements.

Cascade Flow

This study aims to design an axial turbine rotor blade and predict the turbine performance at preliminary design stage. Quasi three dimensional method was applied to design including blade to blade flow analysis. The blade profile uses a NACA 0015 airfoil by varying the profile thickness from hub to tip. The profile is divided into eleven segments which has different parameters. The profile was analysed using blade to blade flow/cascade flow analysis called vortex panel method to obtain lift coefficient. The analysis of cascade flow was performed in potential flow and prediction of turbine perfomance is carried out involving common best practice to give drag effect on the blade. The design of the turbine was applied on three different rotors, which also have a different discharge, head, and design rotation. The outer diameter of turbine 1 is 0.65 m, while turbine 2 and turbine 3 have an outer diameter of 0,60 m. The calculation result show that the efficiency of turbines 1, 2, and 3 were 88,32%, 89,67%, and 89,04%, respectively.

Improved Performance

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) now allows analysis of propulsion system installations on subsonic transports to an extent that many configuration decisions can be made without testing. The methods discussed here utilize low-cost potential flow methods to predict inviscid flow characteristics and utility methods to model geometry, generate computational mesh, estimate wave drag, and perturb geometry in ways that promise improved performance. Jet plume effects are included in the potential flow analysis by means of a plume simulation method. Wave drag predictions yield levels of drag that are consistent with wind tunnel results, and, through contour optimization, wave drag for a trial propulsion installation geometry was reduced by about 50%. We conclude that through the use of methods such as these, many propulsion system installation design decisions can be made by analysis relatively quickly, which should lead to reduced design development time and cost.

Full Multigrid Method

A three-dimensional code for rotating blade-row flow analysis has been developed. The space discretization uses a cell-centered scheme with eigenvalue scaling for the artificial dissipation. The computational efficiency of a four-stage Runge–Kutta scheme is enhanced by using variable coefficients, implicit residual smoothing, and a full-multigrid method. An application is presented for the NASA rotor 67 transonic fan. Due to the blade stagger and twist, a zonal, nonperiodic H-type grid is used to minimize the mesh skewness. The calculation is validated by comparing it with experiments in the range from the maximum flow rate to a near-stall condition. A detailed study of the flow structure near peak efficiency and near stall is presented by means of pressure distribution and particle traces inside boundary layers.

The One

The interaction of a rarefaction wave with a gradual monotonic area reduction of finite length in a duct, which produces transmitted and reflected rarefaction waves and other possible rarefaction and shock waves, was studied both analytically and numerically. A quasi-steady flow analysis which is analytical for an inviscid flow of a perfect gas was used first to determine the domains of and boundaries between four different wave patterns that occur at late times, after all local transient disturbances from the interaction process have subsided. These boundaries and the final constant strengths of the transmitted, reflected and other waves are shown as a function of both the incident rarefaction-wave strength and area-reduction ratio, for the case of diatomic gases and air with a specific-heat ratio of 7/5. The random-choice method was then used to solve numerically the conservation equations governing the one-dimensional non-stationary gas flow for many different combinations of rarefaction-wave strengths and area-reduction ratios. These numerical results show clearly how the transmitted, reflected and other waves develop and evolve with time, until they eventually attain constant strengths, in agreement with quasi-steady flow predictions for the asymptotic wave patterns. Note that in all of this work the gas in the area reduction is initially at rest.
