Leakage vortices formed near blade tip causes an increase of total pressure loss near casing endwall region and as a result, the efficiency of rotor decreases. The reduction of rotor efficiency is related to the size of tip clearance. In this study, the three-dimensional flowfields in an axial flow rotor were calculated with varying tip clearance under various flow rates, and the numerical results were compared with experimental ones. The effects of tip clearance and attack angle on the leakage vortex and overall performance, and the less distributions were investigated through numerical calculations. In this study, tip leakage flow rate and total pressure loss by tip clearance were evaluated using numerical results and aprroximate equations were presented to evaluate the reduction of rotor efficiency by tip leakage flow.

본 연구에서는 누설와류는 유동에 영향을 미치며 에너지 손실로 된다. 누설 와류에 의한 손실은 다른 원인에 의한 손실에 비교하여 그 비중이 크다. 따라서 누 설와류 특성을 이해하기 위해 설계영각(.alpha.=10.7˚)에서 절현비를 t/C=0.90와 2.71로 바꾸고, 또 절현비가 설계절현비 t/C=0.90일 경우에 영각을 설계 영각 .alpha.=10.7˚와 실 속점의 영각 .alpha.=18.9˚사이에서 바꾸어 회전익 후방의 회전유동장을 측정하여 누설와 류의 거동을 연구하였다.

In this study an analysis of the flow characteristics in three types of turbo-fans for a vacuum cleaner was performed by using CFD. The characteristics of three models calculated for various rotating speed for flow rates are obtained and compared with measured data. The mixing plane approach is applied to compute the flow between impeller and diffuser. The results show that the model that is modified to reduce fan noise gives stable flow characteristics in operating range than the original model, with both models show similar performance characteristics at the range of high flow rate. Since in the modified model it takes much longer for an impeller blade to pass a diffuser blade than in the original model, and the peak pressure at BPF can be relieved, it is anticipated that the modified model give much lower noise level with similar performance than the original one, which remains to be verified by unsteady computation and measurements. The good agreement between the predictions and measurement results confirms the validity of this study.

The study of the flow characteristics in two types of turbo-fans for a vacuum cleaner was performed in a previous study.

The Smart UAV must have the control characteristics of propulsion system necessary for both rotary aircraft and fixed wing aircraft though it equips turbo-shaft engine. To develop an electronic engine controller in the future, it is necessary to accumulate the experience of engine operation and data of tilt rotor aircraft. For this purpose, the computer programs which predict engine performance in the steady state and transient state can be utilized for the supplementation of flight test data. In this work, we developed a dynamic analysis program using engine performance data gathered during the flight tests. In addition the accuracy of the program was verified through comparison with flight test data and the results of steady-state performance analysis program.

Recently, it is required to design higher stage pressure ratio compressor while maintaining equal adiabatic efficiency. To increase the stage pressure ratio, blade rotational speed or diffusion factor should be increased. In the case of increasing rotational speed, relative speed of flow at blade leading edge is well supersonic. In supersonic blade, total pressure loss is mainly due to shock wave and blade leading edge thickness should be very thin to minimize the shock wave loss. As a result, the blade is like to be week in terms of mechanical strength and the manufacturing cost is very high because NC machining is necessary. It is also one of big hurdle to overcome to make small compressor. In this paper, the effects of blade leading edge to the performance of supersonic blade In terms of total pressure loss. The efficiency of already known method to make thin blade leading edge from the casted blade with rather thick leading edge thickness is also assessed.

Here is represented a vortex panel method to evaluate the performance characteristics of the 2-dimensional turbomachinery with circular arc blades or logarithmic blades. The present method is characterized by distributing small consecutive panels of linearly varing vortex strength satisfying boundary condition at control points and Kutta condition at trailing edge. To confirm the reliability of the present method, experimental result of a 2-D pump impeller of six circular arc blades is compared with the calculated one. As an application of the present method, figures are presented in series showing velocity and pressure distribution between blades.

The flow characteristics of a NACA0012 airfoil was investigated in rectangular water circulating channel. The flow patterns around an airfoil at various angles of attack between $0^{\circ}\;and\;30^{\circ}\;at\;Re=1.91{\times}104$ were visualized and measured with 2-D PIV system and laser sheet illumination. Flow behaviors such as velocity distribution, kinetic energy and flow separation etc. around an airfoil were obtained by means of 2-D PIV system. The behaviors show the difference of flow pattern clearly and separation phenomena become more active with increasing angle of attack.
