This paper presents the experimental and numerical investigation of flow characteristics on
the highly loaded 4-stage low-speed research compressor (LSRC) with a Cantilevered …

Tandem blades have often been under investigation, experimentally as well as numerically,
but most of the studies have been about tandem blade stators without tip gap. This work …

Numerical simulations with the steady 3D RANS were performed on the rear stage of a
modern high pressure compressor. The labyrinth seal cavity model of the shrouded stator …

The unsteady endwall pressure distribution is investigated by means of highly resolved
pressure measurements and numerical simulations in an axial compressor stator exhibiting …

The present work deals with the experimental analysis of aerodynamic instabilities in axial
