A 2D Partially-Parabolic Procedure for Axial-Flow Turbomachinery Cascades
نویسنده
چکیده
A general finite-difference procedure is presented for the calculation of steady, two-dimensional 'parti-ally-parabolic' flows, with special reference to turbine cascade problems. It can be used for incompressible, subsonic, supersonic or transonic flows. It can be characterised as an 'iterative space-marching' method. The method is more economical in computer storage than time-marching procedures; and computer time is also low. The main distinguishing features of the method are: (a) use of a streamline coordinate system, (b) one-dimensional storage for all variables except pressure, (c) solution by repeated marching integration from upstream to downstream. The capabilities of the method are demonstrated by application to six different inviscid-flow problems. In each case, computed results are compared with the available analytical or experimental data. Good agreement is shown. The method is capable of including momentum transfer across streamlines by viscous effects; it can easily incorporate a two-equation turbulence model; and heat transfer can be simultaneously calculated.

A fully explicit two-dimensional flow solver, based on a four-stage Runge-Kutta scheme, has been developed and utilized to predict two-dimensional viscous flow through turbomachinery cascades for which experimental data is available. The formulation is applied to the density averaged Navier-Stokes equations. Several features of the technique improve the ability of the code to predict high Reyno...

State of the art turbomachinery flow analysis codes are not capable of predicting the viscous flow features within turbomachinery blade wakes. Until efficient 3D viscous flow analysis codes become a reality there is therefore a need for models which can describe the generation and transport of blade wakes and the mixing process within the wake. To address the need for experimental data to suppo...
