Abstract
Flow inside the axial test turbine VT-400 is measured by using a standard methodology of Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). The studied area lies between the stator and rotor wheel in meridional plane. This area covers both: the regular flow near hub and the endwall secondary structures as well. Regular structure of wakes and jets past stator blades is observed in terms of mean velocities and turbulence intensity. The fluctuations are close to isotropy and the energy distribution across length-scales exhibits almost Kolmogorov scaling. Near the hub, we observe secondary vortices. Despite the positive radial ejections in that regions, these secondary vortices drift towards the hub, they dissipate energy and circulation and their core grows in size.
期刊介绍:
The European Journal of Mechanics - B/Fluids publishes papers in all fields of fluid mechanics. Although investigations in well-established areas are within the scope of the journal, recent developments and innovative ideas are particularly welcome. Theoretical, computational and experimental papers are equally welcome. Mathematical methods, be they deterministic or stochastic, analytical or numerical, will be accepted provided they serve to clarify some identifiable problems in fluid mechanics, and provided the significance of results is explained. Similarly, experimental papers must add physical insight in to the understanding of fluid mechanics.
