Numerical investigation of viscous flow through quasi-three dimensional multistage turbomachinery
A good understanding of the computational fluid dynamics associated with rotor/stator configurations can be extremely useful when optimising the performance of turbomachinery.

| Summary: | A good understanding of the computational fluid dynamics associated with rotor/stator
configurations can be extremely useful when optimising the performance of
turbomachinery. In this thesis, a quasi-three-dimensional, implicit, finite volume, time
marching Navier-Stokes approach has been used to investigate the flow through three
cases of the single stage in two subsonic turbines and a transonic compressor. Relative
motion between the rotor and stator blades with arbitrary number of airfoils per row is
made possible with the use of circumferentially averaging techniques on the inter-row
mixing plane. |
