Abstract:
A combined study of tip clearance and tip vortex cavitations in a pump-type rotating machine is presented. Cavitation patterns are observed and cavitation inception is determined for various gap heights, clearance and blade geometries, and rotor operating conditions. An optimum clearance geometry is seen to eliminate clearance cavitation when the clearance edge is rounded on the blade pressure side. The gap height has a strong effect on clearance cavitation inception, but the trends vary considerably when other parameters are also modified. The gap height and clearance geometry have less influ

Abstract:
An investigation of tip leakage flow and its effects on loss production was performed on a large-scale linear turbine cascade having a tip gap measuring 2.1 percent of the blade height. The flow exiting the tip gap was measured to determine the losses incurred within the tip gap and the secondary kinetic energy due to tip leakage. Additional measurements, 40 percent of an axial chord downstream of the blade trailing edges, showed the development of the leakage flow and the overall cascade losses. At the downstream location, the additional loss due to tip leakage was found to be the sum of the

Abstract:
The effects of Reynolds number on flow through a tip gap are investigated by performing laminar flow calculations for an idealized two-dimensional tip gap geometry. The results of the calculations aid in understanding and reconciliation of low Much number turbine tip gap measurements, which range in tip gap Reynolds number from 100 to 10,000. For the higher Reynolds numbers, both the calculations and the measurements show a large separation off the sharp edge of the blade tip corner. For a high Reynolds number, fully turbulent flow calculations were also made. These also show a large separatio

To gain further insights into the details of the tip-gap flow in axial turbines, a test section has been constructed with a single idealized, large-scale tip gap.

For a plain, flat tip four clearances have been examined, varying from 0.292 to 0.667 of the blade thickness (corresponding to physical gap heights of 22.8 to 52.1 mm).

Un-shrouded turbine blades are more common than shrouded ones in gas turbine aero-engines since they reduce the weight and avoid the centrifugal loading caused by the blades’ shrouds. Despite these important advantages, the absence of the shroud leads to leakage flows across the tip gap and exposes the blade tip to high thermal load and thermal damages. In addition, the leakage flows can contribute up to 30% of the aerodynamic loss in a turbine stage. In this study, the effect of in-service burnout is explored using a fundamental flat tip model of a high-pressure gas turbine blade. This invest

Abstract:
The effects of tip leakage have been studied using a 1-m-dia shrouded impeller where a leakage gap is left between the inside of the shroud and the impeller blades. A comparison is made with results for the same impeller where the leakage gap is closed. The static pressure distribution is found to be almost unaltered by the tip leakage, but significant changes in the secondary velocities alter the size and position of the passage wake. Low-momentum fluid from the suction-side boundary layer of the measurement passage and tip leakage fluid from the neighboring passage contribute to the formatio

Abstract:
Measurements of detailed heat transfer coefficient distributions on a turbine blade tip were performed in a large-scale, low-speed wind tunnel facility. Tests were made on a five-blade linear cascade. The low-speed wind tunnel is designed to accommodate the 107.49 deg turn of the blade cascade. The mainstream Reynolds number based on cascade exit velocity was 5.3×105. Upstream unsteady wakes were simulated using a spoke-wheel type wake generator. The wake Strouhal number was kept at 0 or 0.1. The central blade had a variable tip gap clearance. Measurements were made at three different tip gap

This article investigates the flow field at the tip region of compressor rotor. In particular, the effect of stepped tip gaps on the performance and flow field of axial compressor was reviewed using experimental and computational methods. An axial compressor rotor with no inlet guide vanes was tested under subsonic conditions. A parametric study of clearance levels and step profiles was performed using eight different casing geometries. This study was aimed at comparing compressor performance in specified configurations.

Abstract:
Unshrouded blades of axial turbine stages move in close proximity to the stationary outer seal, or shroud, of the turbine housing. The pressure difference between the concave and convex sides of the blade drives a leakage flow through the gap between the moving blade tip and adjacent wall. This clearance leakage flow and accompanying heat transfer are of interest because of long obvious effects on aerodynamic performance and structural durability, but understanding of its nature and influences has been elusive. Previous studies indicate that the leakage through the gap is mainly a pressure-dri

AbstractThe thermal performance of two cavity-winglet tips with endwall motion is investigated in a transonic high pressure turbine cascade, which operates at an engine representative exit Mach number of 1.2 and an exit Reynolds number of 1.7 × 106. The numerical method is first validated with experimental data and then used to investigate blade heat transfer at three different tip clearances of 1.1, 2.1 and 3.1% chord. The effects of relative endwall motion are considered. The present results show that as the size of the tip gap increases, the heat transfer coefficient and heat load on the ti

The tip flows in modern gas turbines are primarily transonic under realistic conditions and significantly impact the overall thrust performance and safety of the turbines. This study is aimed at providing a deeper understanding of the mechanisms underlying and controlling the tip flow characteristics. Particle image velocimetry (PIV) and Schlieren and oil flow visualizations were performed to reveal the basic structure of the tip flow fields. A computational fluid dynamics model was developed, and the experimental results validated its accuracy. FLUENT 18.0 was employed to apply the Spalart-Al

Abstract:
The aerodynamic losses in gas turbines are mainly caused by profile loss secondary flow, and tip leakage loss. This study focuses on tip leakage flow of high-pressure turbine stages. An annular turbine cascade was constructed with fixed blades on the casing, and the distance between blade tip and the hub was considered as tip clearance gap. The effect of endwall movement on loss mechanism was investigated by using experimental and numerical techniques. The measurements were obtained while the hub was fixed but the numerical calculations were carried out for both stationary and moving cascades.

Abstract:
The detailed development of tip clearance loss from the leading to trailing edge of a linear turbine cascade was measured and the contributions made by mixing, internal gap shear flow, and endwall/ secondary flow were identified, separated, and quantified for the first time. Only 13 percent of the overall loss arises from endwall/secondary flow and of the remaining 87 percent, 48 percent is due to mixing and 39 percent is due to internal gap shear. All loss formation appears to be dominated by phenomena connected with the gap separation bubble. Flow established within the bubble by the pressur
