Numerical Studies of the Passage Flowfield in a 3-D Transonic Turbine Blade Cascade
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 May 2011
Abstract
A three-dimensional Navior-Stokes analyzer based on control volume method is developed to simulate the complex flow field within a turbomachinery. With VKI-CT2 turbine blade as the test model, numerical results are compared with experimented data and shows the existence of separation-transition bubble and the interaction of shock with turbulent boundary layer flow. The governing Navier-Stokes equations are solved by an improved numerical method that uses an upwind flux-difference split scheme for spatial descretization and an explicit optimally smoothing multi-stage scheme for time integration. Turbulent stresses are approximated by modifying Baldwin-Lomax algebraic, k-ε, R-k-ε and RNG k-ε turbulence models. According to the results of this research, this analyzer can indeed effectively modulate and simulate the aerodynamic characteristic of the transonic turbine rotor near the endwall.
