Abstract

Computational techniques and codes developed for the prediction of three-dimensional turbulent flows in internal configurations and rotor passages are described. Detailed calibration and validation of the flow fields in 90° curved ducts, cascades, end-wall flows and turbomachinery rotors are presented. Interpretation and comments on accuracy, level of agreement with various turbulence models and limitations of the codes are described. The single pass space-marching code is found to be efficient for curved duct and two-dimensional cascade flows. Multipass space-marching, time-marching and zonal methods are found to be accurate for complex situations. The efficiency and accuracy of a zonal technique, with considerable saving in computational time, is demonstrated.
