Studies on Transonic Turbines with Film Cooled Blades.

Abstract

In the second year of the contract, significant advances were made building on the preliminary studies carried out in the first year. A two-dimensional analytical model has been formulated for the aerodynamic flow around the trailing edge of transonic blades based on data collected last year and the capability of the model to predict the base pressure. The trailing edge shock system and the local wake angle have been tested against cascade data. A comparison between predicted and measured parameters show that the model is superior to other methods. The method also addresses the modeling of round trailing edges.
