As the tangential flow inside the clearance of tribe elements such as bearings and seals is increased as the shaft speed increases, the system stability will be decreased due to the increment of the instability parameter. To reduce the tangential flow inside the clearance of the balance sleeve, anti-swirl injection mechanism is applied. The balance sleeve is used in resisting the axial force induced by impeller in high pressure multi-stage pump. In this paper, total three cases are experimentally investigated; original balance steeve, anti-swirl injection balance steeve with 0 axial degree and anti-swirl injection balance sleeve with 30 axial degree. Experiments are focused in the comparison of vibration level and leakage flow rate. The results clearly shows that the anti-swirl injection balance sleeve with 0 axial degree improves the vibration characteristics. However, the anti-swirl injection balance sleeve with 30 degree aggravates the vibration characteristics. In the standpoint of leakage performance, both anti-swirl injection balance sleeves show the better result than the original balance sleeve.

The experimental study on the effect of axial clearance between the tip of impeller blades and stationary shroud has been performed. The investigated compressor, which is a part of a small auxiliary power unit engine, consists of a curved inlet, a centrifugal impeller, a channel diffuser and a plenum chamber. It was designed for a total pressure ratio of 4.3 and an efficiency of $77\%$ at design speed of 60,000 rpm. The experiments are carried out in an open-loop centrifugal compressor test rig driven by a turbine. For the four different clearance ratios Cr(clearance/impeller tip width) of 6.25, 10.93, 15.60 and 20.30 percent, the overall performance data are obtained at $97\%,\;90\%$ and $80\%$ of the design speed. The results show the overall pressure ratio decrease of $7.7\%$ and the efficiency loss of $8.7\%$ across the variation of clearance ratio near the design speed. It also indicates that the influence of tip clearance became weaker as the flow rate is reduced and the stable operating range is not significantly influenced by the change of clearance ratio.

The axial position of an impeller is misaligned in the process of manufacturing and assembling. For a single suction centrifugal pump with balancing holes, the effect of axial displacement of impeller on the performance, leakage loss and axial thrust acting on the impeller is experimentally investigated. The axial displacement decreases the pump efficiency, increases the leakage through the clearance between wearing ring and impeller, and affects the characteristics of axial thrust.

A study on the flow characteristics in a 4-stage axial compressor and the behavior of rotating stall was experimentally performed at the third-stage rotor and stator rows in order to investigate its performance and instability of the compression system. The pressure losses generated due to the leakage flow at a tip clearance and a shroud seal clearance and the wake flow near the trailing edge of a blade were taken into consideration to estimate the causes of performance drop of the low speed research compressor(LSRC) in Seoul national university. In addition, the measurement of rotating stall was conducted with hot-wire probes and the existence and propagation of stall cell could be confirmed through fast Fourier transform and cross-correlation analysis.

This Paper presents a novel piston friction force measurement system that has characteristics of relieving the Pressure force acting on the upper surface of the liner; the system uses general rubber O-rings for combustion chamber sealing, and does not need special changes to the piston top land. The lower supporter of the floating liner increases stiffness in liner axial direction, and results in the increase of natural frequency. The upper supporter has multi-layer structure designed fer low axial stiffness and high radial stiffness. With the use of the present system, the effects of variation in clearance and piston ring tension were studied.

Fly ash enters axial compressor when a turbomachinery is operated in an adverse environment. We have numerically investigated erosion of the blade and shroud in the turbulent compressor passage flow under the influence of gas-particle two-phase interaction. There have appeared quasi-three dimensional calculations on this subject but not the complete three-dimensional gas-particle interaction as done in the present work. Lagrangian particle tracing technique is used on the base of parallel processing for efficient calculation. Accuracy of the present code is tested using the benchmark lPL nozzle. In the DFVLR compressor blades, we have shown that a large number of particles passing through the tip clearance make impact on the blade tip and on the shroud. Higher degree of erosion is resulted by the heavier particles due to the centrifugal force.

팬소음은 설계변수들과 관계가 있으므로 본 논문은 실험적 방버벵 의하여 팬소음과 설계변수의 관계를 고찰하였다. 설계변수는 팬소음에 특히 영향이 큰 날개수, 날개각도, 날개끝 간극을 선택하였으며 새로운 설계변수로서 동익과 정익간의 간극과 흡입구 길이를 고찰하였다. 본 논문은 팬소음에 대한 관련된 이론을 정리하였으며 축류형 팬의 고효율 저소음 설계를 위한 방안을 제시하였다. 흡입구 길이, 날개끝 간극, 동익과 정익간의 간극등의 설계변소를 변경하여 실험한 결과 이들 설계변수들의 조정에 m이하여 축류형 팬의 고효율 저소음화를 이룰 수 있었다.

A numerical study based on the three-dimensional Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations is presented to analyze the transonic flowfield through two-stage axial compressor. Explicit four-step Runge-Kutta scheme is used for solution algorithm, and local time step and implicit residual averaging are introduced for enhancing the convergency. Artificial dissipation model is adopted to assure the stability of solution. The solver is coupled with Baldwin-Lomax model to describe turbulence. To avoid calculating the unsteady flow, a mixing process is modeled at a station between rotating and stationary blade rows. Results show a variety of important physical phenomena. Comparison of the flowfields with and without tip clearance shows that the effect is considerable in this flowfield. Comparisons with experimental data carried out to validate the calculational results show reasonable agreements. Some remedies are also suggested to improve the revealed problems.
