The thermal interplay between the combustor and the turbine exerts remarkable effects on
the performance of an aero-engine. The non-uniform distributions of the temperature and …

Unsteady component interaction represents a crucial topic in turbomachinery design and
analysis. Combustor/turbine interaction is one of the most widely studied topics both using …

High-pressure turbine (HPT) rotor blades work in a harsh environment with high temperature
and rotational speed. Affected by blade row interaction and inlet non-uniformities, the rotor …

In mass customization, a manufacturing line is required to be kept in reliable operation to
handle product demand volatility and potential machine degradations. Recent advances in …

The adoption of lean-burn technology in modern aero-engines influences the already critical
aerothermal conditions at turbine entry, where the absence of dilution holes preserves the …

Conjugate heat transfer (CHT) analyses were conducted on the film-cooled first stage vane
of GE-E 3 engine to reveal the influences of inlet swirl and hot streak (HS) on vane film …

Stall usually occurs in the hump area of the head curve, which will block the channel and
aggravate the pump vibration. For centrifugal pumps with guide vanes usually have a …

In new generation aero-engines, lean-burn combustors are equipped with swirl injectors in
order to reduce pollutant emissions. At the exit of these combustors, the flow is dominated by …

Advanced civil aero-engines tend to adopt lean burn combustors to meet emission
requirements. The exit of a lean burn combustor experiences highly non-uniformities in both …

In modern aero-engine and gas turbine, the hot streak and residual swirl caused by the
combustor have strong impact on both aero and thermal performances of the high …
