Abstract
In Part 1 of this paper, a repeating stage condition was shown to occur in two low aspect ratio turbines, typically after two stages. Both turbulent diffusion and convective mechanisms were responsible for spanwise transport. In this part, two scaling expressions are determined that account for the influence of these mechanisms in effecting spanwise transport. These are incorporated into a throughflow model using a diffusive term. The inclusion of spanwise transport allows the use of more realistic loss distributions by the designer as input to the throughflow model and therefore focuses attention on areas where losses are generated. In addition, modeling of spanwise transport is shown to be crucial in predicting the attenuation of a temperature profile through a turbine.
