3D Numerical Simulation to Determine Liner Wall Heat Transfer and Flow through a Radial Swirler of an Annular Turbine Combustor

RANS models in CFD are used to predict the liner wall heat transfer characteristics of a gas turbine annular combustor with radial swirlers, over a Reynolds number range from 50,000 to 840,000. A three dimensional hybrid mesh of around twenty five million cells is created for a periodic section of a...
