Vortex decay in a conical diffuser
(Cambridge, Mass. : b Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1964], 1964)The behavior of vortex flow in a conical diffuser has been studied in this report. The flow considered here is a steady, incompressible, axially symmetric one. The present experimental investigation has resulted in the ... -
Wake behavior downstream of a transonic compressor rotor
(Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1974, 1974)Measurements of the static pressure resolved in radial and axial directions downstream of a transonic compressor rotor have been harmonically analyzed. The investigation is part of a program addressing the behavior of ... -
Wake induced blade forces in turbo-machines
(Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1962], 1962)The wake interaction problem in a turbo-machine has been simulated in a water table. The pressure distribution over a compressor blade during the passage of a wake shed by an upstream wake generator has been determined ... -
Wall-shear-stress and laminarisation in accelerated turbulent compressible boundary-layers
(Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Gas Turbine Laboratory, [1968], 1968)Turbulent-laminar transition in compressible, steeply-accelerated, adiabatic, turbulent boundary layers on a smooth wall was investigated experimentally in the ranges of Mach and Reynold's numbers typical of nozzles used ... -
Wave drag in transonic axial compressors
(Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Gas Turbine Laboratory, [1967], 1967)Profiles of fluid properties, including flow angle, static and total pressures have been obtained behind a free wheeling 8" diameter transonic rotor. The latter consists of 40 blades with double circular arc profiles, a ...
