Abstract

AbstractA time‐marching finite volume numerical procedure is presented for three‐dimensional Euler analysis of turbomachinery flows. The proposed scheme is applied to the conservative form of the Euler equations written in general curvilinear co‐ordinates. A simple but computationally efficient grid is constructed. Numerical solution results for three 3D turbine cascade flows have been presented and compared with available measurements as well as with another state‐of‐the‐art 3D Euler analysis numerical solution in order to demonstrate the accuracy and computational efficiency of the analysis method. Also, the predicted results are compared with a 3D potential flow solver and comparison is made with the analytical solution. The proposed method is an accurate and reliable technique for solving the compressible flow equations in turbomachinery geometries.
