The study of low-speed jets into crossflow is critical to the performance of gas turbines. Film cooling is a method to maintain manageable blade temperatures in turbine sections while increasing turbine inlet temperatures and turbine efficiencies. In...

In this study, a thorough experimental investigation of the synchronous blade vibrations of a radial turbine is performed for different IGV configurations. First, the blade modes are measured experimentally and calculated numerically. Subsequently, t...

Turbine blades for modern turbomachinery applications often exhibit complex twisted designs that aim to reduce aerodynamic losses, thereby improving the overall machine performance. This results in intricate internal cooling configurations that chang...

This research paper explores the use of machine learning to relate images of flame structure and luminosity to measured NOx emissions. Images of reactions produced by 16 aero-engine derived injectors for a ground-based turbine operated on a range of...

The increasing utilisation of demand-controlled ventilation strategies leads to the frequent operation of fans under part-load conditions. To accurately predict the energy demand of a ventilation system with a fan array in the early design stages, mo...

At Leibniz University of Hannover, Germany, a new turbomachinery test facility has been built over the last few years. A major part of this facility is a new 6 MW compressor station, which is connected to a large piping system, both designed and buil...
