Abstract:
In order to prolong the service life of multistage axial compressors, it is increasingly important to study the influence of blade surface roughness on the compressor performance. In this paper, a five-stage axial compressor of a real aero-engine was selected as the research object, and an equivalent gravel roughness model was used to model the roughness based on measured blade surface roughness data. Furthermore, the impact of blade surface roughness on the performance at design rotational speed was studied by full three-dimensional numerical simulation, and the mechanism of performance varia

Turbine blades experience significant surface degradation with service. Previous studies indicate that an order-of-magnitude or greater increase in roughness height is typical, and these elevated levels of surface roughness significantly influence turbine efficiency and heat transfer. This paper presents measurement and a mean-line analysis of turbine efficiency reduction due to blade surface roughness. Performance tests have been conducted in a low-speed, single-stage, axial flow turbine with roughened blades. Sheets of sandpaper with equivalent sandgrain roughnesses of 106 and 400 μm have be

A numerical study was conducted to investigate the effects of blade surface roughness on compressor performance and tonal noise emission. The equivalent sand-grain roughness model was used to account for blade surface roughness, and a hybrid method that combines computational fluid dynamics and boundary element method was used to predict compressor performance and tonal noise. The numerical approach was validated against experimental data for a baseline compressor.

The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of blade geometric parameters such as pitch, twist, and taper on a blade’s sensitivity to leading edge roughness. The approach began with an evaluation of available test data of performance degradation due to roughness effects for several rotors. In addition to airfoil geometry, this evaluation suggested that a rotor’s sensitivity to roughness was also influenced by the blade geometric parameters.

Abstract:
Abstract Wind turbines suffer from considerable power losses because of contamination on their blades, that can be due to erosion, wear, smog, insect, sand and dust particle impact. Blade contamination, its effects on the flows over the wind turbine blades and consequent power production losses form the main focus of the present study. These effects are mainly due to increased roughness on the blades leading to earlier laminar-turbulent transition and consequently, thicker boundary-layers on the blades. Early laminar-turbulent transition leads to a larger part of the flow over a blade being tu

Roughened aeroengine blade surfaces lead to increased friction losses and reduced efficiency of the individual blades. The surface roughness also affects the wake flow of the blade and thus the inflow conditions for the subsequent compressor or turbine stage. To investigate the impact of surface roughness on a turbulent blade wake, we conducted velocity field measurements by means of stereo particle image velocimetry in the wake of a roughened turbine blade in a linear cascade wind tunnel.

Abstract:
Abstract The mid-span region of wind turbine blades can be thickened to fulfil the structural requirements of the blade. Hence, thick airfoils, that were designed to operate at the root region of the blade, are moved to the mid-span region. This could not imply remarkable variations of the blade performance once its surface is smooth. However, the sensitivity of thick airfoils to roughness could cause significant aerodynamic impacts such as flow separation. This research aims to quantify the impact of the blade thickness, under smooth and rough conditions, in the annual energy production and t

Abstract:
The cold air test program was completed on the SSME (Space Shuttle Main Engine) HPFTP (High Pressure Fuel Turbopump) turbine with production nozzle vane rings and polished coated rotor blades with a smooth surface finish of 30 microinch (0.76 micrometer) RMS (Root Mean Square). The smooth blades were polished by an abrasive flow machining process. The test results were compared with the air test results from production rough coated rotor blades with a surface finish of up to 400 microinch (10.16 micrometer) RMS. Turbine efficiency was higher for the smooth blades over the entire range tested.
