Numerical Study of the Axial Gap and Hot Streak Effects on Thermal and Flow Characteristics in Two-Stage High Pressure Gas Turbine

Combined cycle power plants (CCPPs) are becoming more important as the global demand for electrical power increases. The power and efficiency of CCPPs are directly affected by the performance and thermal efficiency of the gas turbines. This study is the first unsteady numerical study that comprehens...
