... the flow leaving the high pressure turbine to the low pressure turbine at a larger diameter without any severe loss generating separation or flow disturbances. To reduce costs and weight this turbine duct has to be as short as possible. This results in superaggressive (very high diffusion) S-shaped...

... . Again, this gives an estimate of the recirculation bubble extension affecting the strut pressure surface. At S / S max = − 0.40 the flow reattaches and decelerates due to the combined effect of low profile curvature and high diffusion imparted by the transition duct. In the rear...

... that the flow field is two dimensional and incompressible in the ducts between blade rows although the steady-state density is permitted to change across the blade rows. The resulting stall parameter contains terms that relate to the slope of the pressure rise characteristic of the blade rows and the inertia...

... of the channel walls are also presented. The mass transfer data from the curved wall channels are compared to those from a smooth 4:1 rectangular duct with similar flow parameters. The local mass transfer data are analyzed mainly for the fully developed region, and area-averaged results are presented...

...Anant Shah; Danesh K. Tafti A ribbed square duct ( P ∕ e = 10 , e ∕ D h = 0.10 ) subjected to sand ingestion is studied using large-eddy simulations (LES). Particle sizes of 10 μ m , 50 μ m , and 100 μ m with nondimensional response times (normalized by friction velocity and hydraulic diameter...

...Evan A. Sewall; Danesh K. Tafti Large eddy simulation of the 180 deg bend in a stationary ribbed duct is presented. The domain studied includes three ribs upstream of the bend region and three ribs downstream of the bend with an outflow extension added to the end, using a total of 8.4 million cells...
