Improving the efficiency of compressors has been one of the most important goals of researchers over the years. In this paper, three different methods are presented for parameterization and blade optimization of axial flow compressor. All methods consist of flow analysis tool, optimization algorithms, and parametric geometry generation tool, that are different in each approach. Objective functi...

Abstract This paper presents an “As-Measured Model” (AMM) of a blended blisk, built upon the measurement true geometry blisk by three-dimensional optical scanning technology. high-fidelity model aims to account for variances blade frequencies and mode shapes within real in presence both blend repair inherent mistuning due manufacturing, etc. An improved mesh updating strategy is proposed adapt ...

an investigation was conducted to determine the genetic diversity among 44 iranian spinach (spinacia oleracea l.) landraces using 21 morphological characteristics under open field conditions. according to data analysis results, significant differences were found among landraces in vegetative traits at 1 and 5% levels. results showed that tabriz landrace had the highest percentage of female plan...

The goal of this project is to report on some computational investigations about the return flow passages. The return flow channel provides the connection and carries the flow between two stages of a multistage centrifugal compressor. Of course, deswirl vanes are indispensable between the inlet and outlet section, because usually the inlet flow angle, which comes from the impeller, is 70◦ − 75◦...

Predicting the dynamics of dense granular flow plays an important role in engineering and geophysical flow which involve the transport of granular materials such as for instance cereals, rocks or sand. In the past decade, most of the studies have focused on the flow of granular material on inclined surface due to the obvious applications in rock avalanches, landslides and pyroclastics flows [14...

conclusion high-resolution mr images of the wrist using 3d t2space, pd blade and t2 blade were superior to those using conventional sequences quantitatively. high-snr and cnr mr imaging with space and blade would be a promising method to diagnose wrist lesions. results snr of the cartilage, tfcc on 3d t2space and t1 fse was better than other sequences (p < 0.001). snr of the bone on pd blade wa...

Aeroelasticity is a critical consideration in the design of gas turbine engines, both for stability and forced response. Current aeroelastic models cannot provide highdelity aerodynamics in a form suitable for design or control applications. In this thesis low-order, highdelity aerodynamic models are developed using systematic model order reduction from computational uid dynamic (CFD) methods. ...

During their operation, modern aircraft engine components are subjected to increasingly demanding operating conditions, especially the high pressure turbine (HPT) blades. Such conditions cause these parts to undergo different types of time-dependent degradation, one of which is creep. A model using the finite element method (FEM) was developed, in order to be able to predict the creep behaviour...
