Ice crystal icing occurs in jet engine compressors, which can severely degrade jet engine performance. In this study, we developed an ice crystal trajectory simulation, considering the state changes of ice crystals with a forced convection model, indicat...

Future UHBR (Ultra-High Bypass-Ratio) engines might cause serious ?turbine noise storms? but, at present, turbine noise prediction capability is lacking. The large turning angle of the turbine blade is the first major factor deserving special attention. ...

This study targets determining impellers of impeller-only axial fans with an optimal hub-to-tip ratio for the highest achievable total-to-static efficiency. Differently from other studies, a holistic approach is chosen. Firstly, the complete class of the...

A novel active turbulence grid of the Institute of Fluid Mechanics at FAU Erlangen-Nuremberg is introduced. The focus of this grid is not on basic investigations of fluid mechanics, as is usually the case with active turbulence grids, but the generation ...

The present work reports an experimental study of the leakage flow in a low-speed fan ring. Existing 2D Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) measurements taken in a meridional plane in front of the rotor gap have been further processed and analyzed by means ...

In applications, the acoustics of fans can differ significantly from the measurements of the standalone fan. This is due to disturbed inflow conditions, for example, caused by a heat exchanger upstream of an axial fan. Resolving the complex geometry and ...

Air-cooled condensers (ACCs) are commonly found in power plants working with concentrated solar power or in steam power plants operated in regions with limited water availability. In ACCs, the flow of air is driven toward the heat exchangers by axial fan...

This paper presents a critical overview on worst-case design scenarios for which low-speed axial flow fans may exhibit an increased risk of blade resonance due to profile vortex shedding. To set up a design example, a circular-arc-cambered plate of 8% re...
