Towards a Design Tool for TurbomachineryEpp, Duane R. 31 December 2010 (has links)
A two-dimensional thin-layer Navier-Stokes cascade flow solver for turbomachinery is
developed. A second-order finite-difference scheme and a second and fourth-difference
dissipation scheme are used. Periodic and non-reflecting inlet and outlet boundary conditions
are implemented into the approximate-factorization numerical method. Turbulence
is modeled through the one-equation Spalart-Allmaras model. A two-dimensional turbomachinery
cascade structured grid generator is developed to produce six-block H-type
grids.
The validity of this work is tested in various ways. A grid convergence study is
performed showing the effect of grid density. The non-reflecting inlet and outlet boundary
conditions are tested for boundary placement influence. Comparisons of the flow solver
numerical results are performed against experimental results. A Mach number sweep and
angle of attack sweep are performed on two similar transonic turbine cascades.

A high order method for simulation of fluid flow in complex geometriesStålberg, Erik January 2005 (has links)
<p>A numerical high order difference method is developed for solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The solution is determined on a staggered curvilinear grid in two dimensions and by a Fourier expansion in the third dimension. The description in curvilinear body-fitted coordinates is obtained by an orthogonal mapping of the equations to a rectangular grid where space derivatives are determined by compact fourth order approximations. The time derivative is discretized with a second order backward difference method in a semi-implicit scheme, where the nonlinear terms are linearly extrapolated with second order accuracy.</p><p>An approximate block factorization technique is used in an iterative scheme to solve the large linear system resulting from the discretization in each time step. The solver algorithm consists of a combination of outer and inner iterations. An outer iteration step involves the solution of two sub-systems, one for prediction of the velocities and one for solution of the pressure. No boundary conditions for the intermediate variables in the splitting are needed and second order time accurate pressure solutions can be obtained.</p><p>The method has experimentally been validated in earlier studies. Here it is validated for flow past a circular cylinder as an example of a physical test case and the fourth order method is shown to be efficient in terms of grid resolution. The method is applied to external flow past a parabolic body and internal flow in an asymmetric diffuser in order to investigate the performance in two different curvilinear geometries and to give directions for future development of the method. It is concluded that the novel formulation of boundary conditions need further investigation.</p><p>A new iterative solution method for prediction of velocities allows for larger time steps due to less restrictive convergence constraints.</p>
