Abstract

In order to reduce the turbine flow, injecting an airstream into the mainstream of the low-pressure turbine from the casing. A CFD analysis has been carried out to study the impact of jet parameters (jet position, Angle, flow rate and velocity) to the turbine flow. The calculation results show that when the low-speed region caused by the jet flow locates at the throat the flow regulating effect is the most obvious. In additional, when the jet is against the main stream or with a big flow rate, the turbine flow regulation is better, but the loss efficiency of the turbine will be significantly increased. The jet Mach number has little influence on the effect of flow regulation.
