Recent developments in numerical schemes, turbulent combustion models and the regular
increase of computing power allow Large Eddy Simulation (LES) to be applied to real …

Effusion-cooling is the next logical step in gas turbine blade cooling. Research on this topic
has been done since the early 1950s, but manufacturing and modelling difficulties have …

The objectives of this paper are the description of azimuthal instability modes found in
annular combustion chambers using two numerical tools:(1) Large Eddy Simulation (LES) …

A combustion instability in a combustor terminated by a nozzle is analysed and modelled
based on a low-order Helmholtz solver. A large eddy simulation (LES) of the corresponding …

Great prominence is put on the design of aeronautical gas turbines due to increasingly
stringent regulations and the need to tackle rising fuel prices. This drive towards innovation …

The study of the acoustic effect of perforated plates by Large-Eddy Simulations is reported.
The ability of compressible Large-Eddy Simulations to provide data on the flow around a …

This paper investigates the global sensitivity of high-pressure-turbine (HPT) first stage
cascades aerothermal characteristics and blade cooling performance under the influence of …

In mass customization, a manufacturing line is required to be kept in reliable operation to
handle product demand volatility and potential machine degradations. Recent advances in …

Increasingly stringent regulations and the need to tackle rising fuel prices have placed great
emphasis on the design of aeronautical gas turbines, which are unfortunately more and …

The adoption of lean-burn technology in modern aero-engines influences the already critical
aerothermal conditions at turbine entry, where the absence of dilution holes preserves the …
