Turbulence intensity impacts the performance of turbine stages and it is an important inlet boundary condition for CFD computations; the knowledge of its value at the turbine inlet is then of paramount importance. In combustor?turbine interaction experim...

The main buffet suppression techniques of aircrafts include active and passive flow control, aiming to reduce the impact of the fluctuating loads on the airfoil. These techniques are remedies after the airfoil design. The buffet suppression is not always...

Tiltrotors permit aircrafts to operate vertically with lift, yet convert to ordinary forward flight with thrust. The challenge is to design a tiltrotor blade yielding maximum lift and thrust that converts smoothly without losing integrity or efficiency. ...

An electrically controlled rotor (ECR), also known as a swashplateless rotor, eliminates the swashplate system to implement the primary control via the trailing-edge flaps (TEFs), which can result in enhancements in rotor performance, as well as substant...

Helicopter and turboprop engines are susceptible to the ingestion of debris and other foreign objects, especially during take-off, landing, and hover. To avoid deleterious effects, filters such as Inlet Particle Separators (IPS) can be installed. However...

A problem with 1-D water hammer modelling is in the application of accurate unsteady friction. Moreover, investigating the time response of fluid dynamics and unsteady turbulence structures during the water hammer is not possible with a 1-D model. This r...

The successful design of compressor blades through numerical optimization relies on accurate CFD-RANS solvers that are able to capture the general performance of a given design candidate. However, this is a difficult task to achieve in transonic flow con...
