Boundary layer effects on airfoil lift
(Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1958], 1958)A study of the discrepancy in lift between potential flow calculations and experiments was made. In potential flow the fluid is assumed to follow the contour of the airfoil, forming a stagnation point at the geometric ... -
Comparative study of tip clearance effects in compressors and turbines
(Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1961], 1961)The influence of tip clearance on the lift distribution along a blade span was studied on linear compressor and turbine cascades. The wall boundary layer was removed by means of the image technique. The lift distribution ... -
The influence of tip clearance on stall limits of a rectilinear cascade of compressor blades
(Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1959], 1959)An experimental study of the influence of tip clearance on the stall limits of compressor blades was conducted on a two dimensional rectilinear cascade. By using the mirror and image technique the end wall boundary layer ... -
Stall propagation in a cascade of airfoils
(Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1956], 1956)An experimental investigation of stall propagation in a stationary circular cascade by means of high speed schlieren and interferometer photography is described. This investigation suggests an analytical approach to the ...
