A Model of Mass and Heat Transfer for Disc Temperature Prediction in Open Compressor Cavities
Accurate prediction of heat transfer in compressor cavities is crucial to the design of efficient and reliable aircraft engines. The heat transfer affects the thermal expansion of the compressor rotor and, in turn, the tip...
Mass and Heat Exchange in Rotating Compressor Cavities With Variable Cob Separation
Next generation aeroengines will operate at ever-increasing pressure ratios with smaller cores, where the control of blade-tip clearances across the flight cycle is an emerging design challenge. Such clearances are affected by...
Experimental Investigation of Transient Flow Phenomena in Rotating Compressor Cavities
