Book Large eddy Simulation and Active Flow Control of Low reynolds Number Flow Through a Low pressure Turbine Cascade

Download or read book Large eddy Simulation and Active Flow Control of Low reynolds Number Flow Through a Low pressure Turbine Cascade written by Shirdish Poondru and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Separation control of the LPT flow was implemented using synthetic normal jets, synthetic vortex-generator jets, and pulsed vortex-generator jets (VGJs) at Re ~ 10,000, for four blowing ratios ranging from 0.5 to 4.7, where the blowing ratio is defined as the ratio of the jet-exit velocity magnitude to the local free-stream velocity. All the jets were implemented by specifying an analytical boundary condition at the jet exit surface. The effectiveness of the jets was assessed in terms of the integrated wake loss coefficient values, and the modified Zweifel coefficient values. The Zweifel coefficient represents the component of the integrated blade Cp distribution contributing to the direction of rotation. Among the three types of control jets implemented, the synthetic normal jets were found to be more effective than the synthetic or pulsed VGJs. For pulsed VGJs, the effective blowing ratio was found to be 2.0 in the present study, compared to the value of 0.4 documented in the literature for control at a Re = 25,000, indicating a strong dependence of the effective blowing ratio on Re. The study also examined the flow control mechanisms of the synthetic normal jets and vortex-generator jets. It was found that the mechanism for effectiveness of synthetic jets was a combination of instability-triggered transition and free-stream momentum entrainment. Finally, the synthetic jets and synthetic VGJs were found to be more effective when the jets were located just upstream of the natural separation point.

Book Simulation of Flow Through Low pressure Linear Turbine Cascade  Using Multi block Structured Grid

Download or read book Simulation of Flow Through Low pressure Linear Turbine Cascade Using Multi block Structured Grid written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Reynolds number for the flow through LPT at cruise conditions is much lower than that at the take-off conditions. This low-Re flow has a great tendency to undergo separation on the suction surface of the turbine blade when an adverse pressure gradient is encountered. This prevailing flow separation is detrimental to the performance of the LPT. Hence, low-pressure turbine (LPT) stage in aircraft engines undergo significant losses during cruise conditions. Therefore, accurate prediction of flow separation is crucial for an effective design of LPT blade, and is achieved in the present work using a high-order accurate numerical solution procedure. The accurate prediction of flow separation is necessary for implementing flow control techniques, passive or active, to possibly delay or prevent the occurrence of flow separation in the low-pressure turbine stage in an aircraft engine. A multi-block, periodic, structured grid of multiple topologies generated by the grid generation software, GRIDPRO, is used for the present numerical analysis. The three-dimensional, unsteady, full Navier-Stokes equations are solved to analyze the flow. A MPI-based higher-order, parallel, chimera Large-Eddy Simulation (LES), version of the FDL3DI flow solver, developed by the Air Force Research Laboratory at Wright Patterson Air Force Base, is extended for the present turbo-machinery application. A sixth-order accurate compact-difference scheme is usual for the spatial discretization, coupled with tenth-order filtering to minimize the numerical oscillations in the flow solution and maintain numerical stability, along with second-order accurate temporal discretization. Also examined is the effect of grid density and the location of the upstream inflow boundary ... Finally, the baseline simulation study of flow over a circular cylinder at ReD = 13,400 is performed as a starting step for the future study of implementation of flow control techniques for preventing or delaying the flow separation.

Book Unsteady Computational Fluid Dynamics in Aeronautics

Download or read book Unsteady Computational Fluid Dynamics in Aeronautics written by P.G. Tucker and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-08-30 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and hybrids is a vibrant research area. This book runs through all the potential unsteady modelling fidelity ranges, from low-order to LES. The latter is probably the highest fidelity for practical aerospace systems modelling. Cutting edge new frontiers are defined. One example of a pressing environmental concern is noise. For the accurate prediction of this, unsteady modelling is needed. Hence computational aeroacoustics is explored. It is also emerging that there is a critical need for coupled simulations. Hence, this area is also considered and the tensions of utilizing such simulations with the already expensive LES. This work has relevance to the general field of CFD and LES and to a wide variety of non-aerospace aerodynamic systems (e.g. cars, submarines, ships, electronics, buildings). Topics treated include unsteady flow techniques; LES and hybrids; general numerical methods; computational aeroacoustics; computational aeroelasticity; coupled simulations and turbulence and its modelling (LES, RANS, transition, VLES, URANS). The volume concludes by pointing forward to future horizons and in particular the industrial use of LES. The writing style is accessible and useful to both academics and industrial practitioners. From the reviews: "Tucker's volume provides a very welcome, concise discussion of current capabilities for simulating and modellng unsteady aerodynamic flows. It covers the various pos sible numerical techniques in good, clear detail and presents a very wide range of practical applications; beautifully illustrated in many cases. This book thus provides a valuable text for practicing engineers, a rich source of background information for students and those new to this area of Research & Development, and an excellent state-of-the-art review for others. A great achievement."

Student and expert alike will benefit greatly by reading it from cover to cover." Sébastien Deck, Onera, Meudon, France

Book Direct and Large Eddy Simulation I

Download or read book Direct and Large Eddy Simulation I written by Peter R. Voke and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a truism that turbulence is an unsolved problem, whether in scientific, engin eering or geophysical terms. It is strange that this remains largely the case even though we now know how to solve directly, with the help of sufficiently large and powerful computers, accurate approximations to the equations that govern tur bulent flows. The problem lies not with our numerical approximations but with the size of the computational task and the complexity of the solutions we gen erate, which match the complexity of real turbulence precisely in so far as the computations mimic the real flows. The fact that we can now solve some turbu lence in this limited sense is nevertheless an enormous step towards the goal of full understanding. Direct and large-eddy simulations are these numerical solutions of turbulence. They reproduce with remarkable fidelity the statistical, structural and dynamical properties of physical turbulent and transitional flows, though since the simula tions are necessarily time-dependent and three-dimensional they demand the most advanced computer resources at our disposal. The numerical techniques vary from accurate spectral methods and high-order finite differences to simple finite-volume algorithms derived on the principle of embedding fundamental conservation prop erties in the numerical operations. Genuine direct simulations resolve all the fluid motions fully, and require the highest practical accuracy in their numerical and temporal discretisation. Such simulations have the virtue of great fidelity when carried out carefully, and repre sent a most powerful tool for investigating the processes of transition to turbulence.

Book On the Experimental Evaluation of Loss Production and Reduction in a Highly Loaded Low Pressure Turbine Cascade

Download or read book On the Experimental Evaluation of Loss Production and Reduction in a Highly Loaded Low Pressure Turbine Cascade written by Philip Steven Bear and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Improvements in turbine design methods have resulted in the development of blade profiles with both high lift and good Reynolds lapse characteristics. An increase in aerodynamic loading of blades in the low pressure turbine section of aircraft gas turbine engines has the potential to reduce engine weight or increase power extraction. Increased blade loading means larger pressure gradients and increased secondary losses near the endwall. Prior work has emphasized the importance of reducing these losses if highly loaded blades are to be utilized. The present study analyzes the secondary flow field of the front-loaded low-pressure turbine blade designated L2F with and without blade profile contouring at the junction of the blade and endwall. The current work explores the loss production mechanisms inside the low pressure turbine cascade. Stereoscopic particle image velocimetry data, total pressure loss data and oil flow visualization are used to describe the secondary flow field. The flow is analyzed in terms of total pressure loss, vorticity, Q-Criterion, Reynolds' stresses, turbulence intensity and turbulence production. The flow description is then expanded upon using an Implicit Large Eddy Simulation of the flow field. The RANS momentum equations contain terms with static pressure derivatives. With some manipulation these equations can be rearranged to form an equation for the change in total pressure along a streamline as a function of velocity only. After simplifying for the flow field in question the equation can be interpreted as the total pressure transport along a streamline. A comparison of the total pressure transport calculated from the velocity components and the total pressure loss is presented and discussed. Peak values of total pressure transport overlap peak values of total pressure loss through and downstream of the passage suggesting that total pressure transport is a useful tool for localizing and predicting loss origins and loss development using velocity data which can be obtained non-intrusively.
