... and high mainstream turbulence conditions were utilized to simulate realistic engine conditions. High-resolution adiabatic effectiveness measurements were obtained using infrared imaging techniques and a large-scale flat plate model. Optimum adiabatic effectiveness was found to occur for a blowing ratio...

...N. Balzani; F. Scarano; M. L. Riethmuller; F. A. E. Breugelmans The purpose of this study is to investigate the blade-to-blade flow in an axial compressor, providing a detailed description of the entire flow-field on multiple layers through the use of Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). Typical...
