A numerical analysis of 3-D inviscid stator/rotor interactions using non-reflecting boundary conditions
(Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1992], 1992)This dissertation presents a method for the computation of three-dimensional inviscid, transonic steady and unsteady flows, primarily in axial flow turbines. The work is divided into two major contributions. The first is ... -
An analytical and numerical study of the second-order effects of unsteadiness on the performance of turbomachines
(Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1992], 1992)A linear approach in two dimensions is used to investigate the second-order effects of unsteadiness on the efficiency of turbomachines. The three main themes are the identification of physical nature and location of unsteady ... -
Experimental investigation of flow distortion effects on the performance of radial discrete-passage diffusers
(Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1991], 1991)A swirling-radial-flow generator has been developed for the study of fluid-dynamic phenomena in radial passage- and vaneless-diffusers. A unique feature of the swirling-flow generator is the capability of providing a wide ...
