Large-eddy simulations of flow and heat transfer around a low-Mach number turbine blade
نویسندگان
چکیده
Modeling of wall bounded flows and conjugate heat transfer (CHT) is known to be a challenging task for Large-Eddy Simulation (LES). In the boundary layers, the inertial and dissipative scales have similar sizes, which implies relying on different modeling approaches than those used in free turbulent flows. To this aim, a numerical database of highly-refined LES and CHT simulations is built and used to validate a novel tabulated wall model based on the work of Duprat et al. (2011).

Simulating Cooling Injection Effect of Trailing Edge of Gas Turbine Blade on Surface Mach Number Distribution of Blade
In this research, a gas turbine blade cascade was investigated. Flow analysis around the blade was conducted using RSM and RNG.K-ε turbulence modeling and it is simulated by Fluent software. The results were considered for the cases as Mach number loss at the trailing edge of blade caused by vortexes that were generated at the end of blade. Effect of cooling flow through the trailing edge on th...
متن کاملNumerical investigations of separation-induced transition on high-lift low-pressure turbine using RANS and LES methods
At low Reynolds numbers, laminar-turbulent transition occurs on the suction side of high-lift low-pressure turbine blades. The prediction of this flow is an important step in low-pressure turbine design. Thus the laminar-turbulent transition must be modeled or resolved. The flow around the high-lift low-pressure turbine blade T106C is predicted using RANS simulations, without and with transitio...

The turbulent flow field generated in a baffled stirred tank was computed by large eddy simulation (LED) and the flow field was developed using the Sliding Mesh (SM) approach. In this CFD study, mixing times and power number have been determined for a vessel agitated by a 6-blade Rushton turbine. The predicted results were compared with the published experimental data. The satisfactory results ...
متن کاملA New Model for Prediction of Heat Eddy Diffusivity in Pipe Expansion Turbulent Flows
A new model to calculate heat eddy diffusivity in separating and reattaching flows based on modification of constant Prt is proposed. This modification is made using an empirical correlation between maximum Nusselt number and entrance Reynolds number. The model includes both the simplicity of Prt=0.9 assumption and the accuracy of two-equation heat-transfer models. Furthermore, an appropriate l...
متن کاملComputation of heat transfer in a linear turbine cascade
The efficiency of a turbine increases in general with an increase of the temperature of the working gas. In modern turbines this gas temperature may well exceed the melting temperature of the metal walls (Harasgama, 1995). Locally high heat transfer can lead to an excessive temperature and high thermal stresses in the walls, causing an early fatigue of the high pressure turbine components. Thus...
