Effect of cooling injection on transonic tip flows
Effect of cooling injection on transonic tip flows
In this paper, the effect of cooling injection on the aerodynamics of tip flows in transonic turbines is investigated. Experiments are performed using an idealized model of a transonic tip flow. Schlieren photography, probe, and surface pressure measurements are used to determine the transonic tip flow structure and to validate the computational method. Computational simulations are performed to investigate the effects of cooling injection in a transonic blade environment. The results show that cooling injection has the potential to reduce overtip leakage loss.

Abstract
In this paper, the effect of cooling injection on the aerodynamics of tip flows in transonic turbines is investigated. Experiments are performed using an idealized model of a transonic tip flow. Schlieren photography, probe, and surface pressure measurements are used to determine the transonic tip flow structure and to validate the computational method. Computational simulations are performed to investigate the effects of cooling injection in a transonic blade environment. The results show that cooling injection has the potential to reduce overtip leakage loss.
