Abstract

A one and a half stage transonic turbine was tested using a two component laser–doppler–velocimetry system. The measurements were carried out in order to record rotor phase resolved velocity, flow angle and turbulence distributions upstream and downstream of the second stator row at several different angular stator–stator positions (“clocking” positions). Altogether, the measurements downstream of the second stator were performed for ten different clocking positions and upstream of the second stator for two different clocking positions. These different clocking positions have a significant influence on the flow field upstream and downstream of the second stator. Furthermore error estimation and a discussion of the tracer particle response are discussed.
