Influence of Inter-row Gap Value on Turbine Losses

This paper presents the results of a numerical investigation of the gap influence on the turbine efficiency. The rotor-stator interaction in a (1/2)-stage turbine is simulated by solving the quasi-three-dimensional unsteady Euler/Navier-Stokes equations using a parallelized numerical algorithm. The...
