Through Flow Analysis -- CFD Online Discussion Forums.
This Report describes a computer program for the analysis of the fluid motion in the meridional plane of axial flow turbomachines. The method uses a streamline curvature approach and the program allows calculations within blade rows. Comparisons with experiment and various other methods of analysis are presented. LIST OF CONTENTS 1.This paper describes a newly developed streamline curvature throughflow method for the analysis of radial or mixed flow machines. The code includes curved walls, curved leading and trailing edges.A streamline curvature throughflow numerical approach is assessed and modified to better approximate the flow fields of transonic axial compression systems. Improvements in total pressure loss modeling are implemented, central to which is a physics-based shock model, to ensure accurate and reliable off-design performance prediction. The new model accounts for shock geometry changes, with shock.
Lift Generation and Streamline Curvature Prof. David L. Darmofal Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics Massachusetts Institute of Technology October 13, 2005 1 Objective The objective of these notes is to explain how an airfoil generates lift using a streamline curvature analysis. The analysiswill showin a qualitativemannerhowthe shape of anairfoilin uences the pressuredistribution, and.The streamline curvature throughflow method is a standard tool used for the design and analysis of turbomachinery generally, especially when it comes to the design of axial multi-stage machines.
A streamline curvature method works only good, if you have good loss correlations. Up until now, no loss correlations were implemented. We have done an more or less extensive literature research of loss correlations. So it would be an option for your students, to implement some of these correlations int the skv. I would be really interested in that! If you want to start development, I suggest.
