Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experimental measurements in a linear cascade with tip clearance are complemented by numerical solutions of the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations in an investigation of tip leakage flow. Measurements reveal that the clearance flow, which separates near the entry of the tip gap, remains unattached for the majority of the blade chord when the tip clearance is similar to that typical of a machine. The numerical predictions of leakage flow rate agree very well with measurements and detailed comparisons show that the mechanism of tip leakage is primarily inviscid. It is demonstrated by simple calculation that it is the static pressure field near the end of the blade which controls chordwise distribution of the flow across the tip. Although the presence of a vortex caused by the roll-up of the leakage flow may affect the local pressure field, the overall magnitude of the tip leakage flow remains strongly related to the aerodynamic loading of the blades.
Book Synopsis Evaluation of the ZDES Method on an Axial Compressor by : William Riera

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tip-leakage flow in axial compressors is studied with the Zonal Detached Eddy Simulation (ZDES). This study aims at evaluating the capability of hybrid URANS/LES methods to simulate the tip-leakage flow within a realistic axial compressor in order to better understand the involved physics, especially the behaviour of the flow near surge and the effects of stator wakes on the downstream rotor. Once the ZDES method is chosen, a numerical test bench is defined to simulate the first rotor of the research compressor CREATE. This bench takes into account the unsteady effects of the Inlet Guide Vane (IGV), such as its wake as well as vortices generated at the IGV hub and tip. It is based upon ZDES meshing criteria and is used to evaluate this method compared to classic RANS and URANS approaches. A method validation is carried out up to a spectral analysis compared to experimental data. The ZDES is capable to capture more accurately the intensity and position of the unsteady phenomena encountered in the tip region, especially the tip-leakage vortex. The power spectral densities highlight that this partly originates from a better capture of the energy transfer from large to small structures until their dissipation. The discrepancy between the methods is accentuated as the tip-leakage vortex crosses the shock. Near the surge line, the interactions between the shock, the tip-leakage vortex, the boundary layer developing on the shroud and the vortex generated by the IGV tip are amplified. The boundary layer on the shroud separates earlier and a local flow inversion occurs. Besides, the tip-leakage vortex widens and is deflected toward the adjacent blade. This strengthens the double leakage. At the design operating point, the interaction of the IGV tip vortex with the shock and the rotor tip vortex is studied. A vortex flutter is observed as the IGV tip vortex arrives on the rotor blade and stretches the rotor tip vortex. This phenomenon decreases the double leakage.

Book Synopsis Design and Tests of a Six-stage Axial-flow Compressor Having a Tip Speed of 550 Feet Per Second and a Flat Operating Characteristic at Constant Speed by : Willard R. Westphal

Westphal and published by . This book was released on 1958 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A six-stage axial-flow compressor with a tip speed of 550 feet per second and a flat operating characteristics at constant speed has been designed and tested. It was designed for a constant power input per pound of flow in expectation that this would result in a wider mass-flow operating range at a given stagnation-presssure ratio. The design specific weight flow was 21.3 pounds per second per square foot of frontal area at atmospheric discharge with a stagnation-pressure ratio of 3.25 and an inlet hub-tip radius ratio of 0.7. Several configurations consisting of various blade setting angles and solidities were tested. Tests showed that the design flow, pressure ratio, and flat operating characteristic were obtained over a range of 10 percent of design flow at a peak efficiency of 82 percent for design conditions. The compressor had a possible immediate application for air removal from a large slotted-throat transonic wind tunnel, but the design theory could apply to any low-speed industrial compressor or second spool of a turbojet engine.

Book Synopsis Large Tip Clearance Flows in High Pressure Stages of Axial Compressors by : Richard James Williams
Download or read book Large Tip Clearance Flows in High Pressure Stages of Axial Compressors written by Richard James Williams and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis investigates over tip leakage where the tip clearance is large. In the high pressure stages of axial compressors the tip clearance can be typically 6% of span and the total blockage due to tip clearance can consume in excess of forty percent of the annulus height. Experimental and computational investigations of large tip clearance in a linear cascade have been used to investigate this phenomenon. Two cascade builds have been used the first (Build A) consisted of a controlled diffusion aerofoil of low stagger and thirty degrees flow turning. The second cascade (Build B) consisted of an engine representative design with high stagger and around ten degrees of flow turning. The diffusion factor of both cascades was around 0.3. The major findings are that: Large tip clearances have a smaller detrimental influence on single row performance than the previous research would have suggested, for Build B the loss at 10% tip clearance was the same as the 0% tip clearance loss, though the overall flow turning was much reduced. An increase in blade loading towards the tip was observed with both builds. Both these phenomenon were attributed to the small amount of movement of the over tip leakage vortex. An engine representative level of inlet skew was implemented using upstream injection so to assess its influence. This was found to have a remarkably small influence on the performance of a single row with the tip clearance and geometry of the blading having a much greater influence. Finally a circumferential grooved casing treatment was applied in the linear cascade but this was found not to be an appropriate tool for such an investigation.

Book Synopsis Tip Clearance Flows in Axial Compressors by : Stephanie April Weichert
Download or read book Tip Clearance Flows in Axial Compressors written by Stephanie April Weichert and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The flow in the rotor tip clearance gap in an axial compressor influences the loss levels and the stall onset point. The role of tip clearance flows in the stall inception process is still debated, though. The aim of this thesis is to improve the fundamental understanding of the tip clearance flow field and its role in the stall inception process. The knowledge gained is used to develop a new casing treatment for an aero-engine core compressor. Detailed static pressure, total pressure, and velocity measurements were made in the rotor tip clearance gap at design and near stall flow conditions. The resulting overtip flow maps showed the flow field in more detail than previously possible. Flow variations around the annulus and among blade passages were analyzed and found to increase as stall is approached. This increase was not uniform around the annulus or among passages; instead, some blade passages exhibited unique behaviour compared to all the other passages. The flow variations in the unique passages were linked to small physical irregularities in compressor blading. Detailed overtip measurements were also made at stall inception to investigate the formation of the spike disturbance. These measurements, the first of their kind, showed that the disturbance which initiates the formation of the spike destabilizes the boundary between the reversed flow and incoming flow. After destabilization, reversed flow increasingly dominates the passage until the neighbouring passage is affected. The spike was found to originate most often from those regions in the compressor where the flow variations are highest and was not, as suggested by some research, associated with the forward movement of the tip leakage vortex. A new casing treatment for axial compressors was proposed and tested. The casing treatment extracts air from over the rotor blade tips and re-injects it upstream of the rotor blade leading edges into the tip region through discrete re-circulation loops. The overtip location of air extraction is unique and enables self-regulation of the amount of flow re-circulated: a minimum amount of air is re-circulated at compressor design conditions (thus minimizing any loss of efficiency) and a maximum amount of air is re-circulated near the stability limit (thus maximizing stall margin). Modest stall margin improvements (2%) were achieved without any loss of compressor efficiency at design conditions.
Book Synopsis Hydrodynamics of Pumps by : Christopher E. Brennen
Download or read book Hydrodynamics of Pumps written by Christopher E. Brennen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-03-28 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydrodynamics of Pumps is a reference for pump experts and a textbook for advanced students. It examines the fluid dynamics of liquid turbomachines, particularly pumps, focusing on special problems and design issues associated with the flow of liquid through a rotating machine. There are two characteristics of a liquid that lead to problems and cause a significantly different set of concerns than those in gas turbines. These are the potential for cavitation and the high density of liquids, which enhances the possibility of damaging, unsteady flows and forces. The book begins with an introduction to the subject, including cavitation, unsteady flows and turbomachinery, basic pump design and performance principles. Chapter topics include flow features, cavitation parameters and inception, bubble dynamics, cavitation effects on pump performance, and unsteady flows and vibration in pumps - discussed in the three final chapters. The book is richly illustrated and includes many practical examples.
