Turbine Blade Tip Leakage Flow Control: Thick/Thin Blade Effects
An experiment was conducted in a linear cascade of Pak-B blades for an exit Mach number of 0.3 to simulate the flow in the tip-gap region of a low pressure turbine blade row. The experiment focused on the independent effects of thickness-to-gap and gapto-chord ratios on the tip-gap flow behavior. Two extreme gap-to-chord ratios of 5% and 8% were chosen, for which four thickness-to-gap ratios we...
متن کاملAn Optical Fiber Bundle Sensor for Tip Clearance and Tip Timing Measurements in a Turbine Rig
When it comes to measuring blade-tip clearance or blade-tip timing in turbines, reflective intensity-modulated optical fiber sensors overcome several traditional limitations of capacitive, inductive or discharging probe sensors. This paper presents the signals and results corresponding to the third stage of a multistage turbine rig, obtained from a transonic wind-tunnel test. The probe is based...
متن کاملNew Indices for Detection of Turbine blade Tip Deformation and Estimation of Clearance Extent Using Scattering Parameter
Reliability of gas turbine power plant is related to the blade normal operation. In this paper, a new on-line condition monitoring method has been presented to evaluate two important factors affecting the turbine blades that are the tip clearance and tip deformation. A K band’s microwave sensor has been simulated and optimized in CST Microwave Studio software. Scattering parameters of the near...
متن کاملTurbine Blade Tip Cooling and Heat Transfer
ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Behind every success, there is inspiration or support of at least one person. In my case, it was a group of people including my mentor, my family, and my friends. First of all, I would like to thank Dr. Srinath Ekkad for his guidance, wisdom, and financial support. I do not think many advisors would go to the lab to help his student running an experiment. Whenever I had any ...
متن کاملReal-time Tip-clearance Active Control System
Significance of the Problem Control of blade-tip clearance in the compressor and turbine sections of gas turbine engines can improve efficiency, minimize leakage flow, and shorten engine development time. Tip clearance varies throughout different operating conditions (e.g., start-up, idle, full power, shut-down) because of different radial forces and different thermal expansion coefficients and...
