Effect of surface roughness on the aerodynamic performance of turbine blade cascade

The effect of surface roughness on the boundary development and loss behavior of turbine blades is investigated with different Reynolds numbers in this paper. The result shows that the velocity profile in boundary layer is plumper on rough surface than on smooth blade. The aerodynamic loss is lowere...
