1차원 설계에서 설계된 2단형 터보펌프 터빈에 대한 유동해석을 수행하고 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 1단 동익에 대한 계산결과로부터 가장 우수한 1단 익형을 선정한 후 정익의 입 출구 높이 변화에 따른 터빈의 성능변화를 고찰하였다. 2단 전체에 대한 계산을 수행하고 같은 출력의 단단형 터빈에 비해 높은 비출력을 갖는 터빈의 설계가 가능함을 확인하였다.

A steam turbine is one of propulsion systems of a LNG carrier, which consists of high pressure (HP) and low pressure (LP) turbines. In order to obtain high power, each one has the form of a multi-stage turbine. Especially, the first stage of a HP turbine is Curtis stage and uses partial admission considering the turbine efficiency. The performance of a HP turbine can be predicted by a mean-line analysis method, because the relatively large value of hub-tip ratio makes the three-dimensional losses small. In this study, a performance analysis method is developed for a multi-stage HP turbine using Chen's loss model developed for the transonic steam turbines. To consider the feature of partial admission, different partial admission models are reviewed, This analysis method can be used in partial load conditions as well as full load condition. The calculation results are also compared with the CFD results about some simple cases to check the accuracy of the program. Performance of two HP turbine models are calculated, and the calculation results are compared with the designed data. The comparison shows the qualitative performance analysis result.

In order to improve aerodynamic performance of multi-stage axial flow turbines used in aircraft engines, a one-dimensional aerodynamic design and optimization framework is constructed. In the method, flow path is generated by solving mass continuation and energy conservation with loss computed by the Craig & Cox model; Also real gas properties has been taken into consideration. To obtain an optimal result, a multi-objective genetic algorithm is used to optimize the efficiencies and determine values of various design variables; Final design can be selected from obtained Pareto optimal solution sets. A three-stage axial turbine is used to verify the effectiveness of the developed optimization framework, and designs are checked by three-dimensional CFD simulation. Results show that the aerodynamic performance of the optimized turbine has been significantly improved at design point, with the total-to-total efficiency increased by 1.17% and the total-to-static efficiency increased by 1.48%. As for the off-design performance, the optimized one is improved at all working points except those at small mass flow.

Counter Rotating Turbine (CRT) is an axial turbine with a nozzle followed by a rotor and another rotor that rotates in the opposite direction of the first one. Axial spacing between blade rows plays major role in its performance. Present work involves computationally studying the performance and flow field of CRT with axial spacing of 10, 30 and 70% for different mass flow rates. The turbine components are modeled for all the three spacing. Velocity, pressure, entropy and Mach number distributions across turbine stage are analyzed. Effect of spacing on losses and performance in case of stage, Rotor1 and Rotor2 are elaborated. Results confirm that an optimum axial spacing between turbine components can be obtained for the improved performance of CRT.

본 연구에서 축류형 터빈의 설계기술이 개발되었다. 설계를 위하여 우선적으로 기본형상에 대한 설계가 이루어졌으며 유선곡률법에 의하여 터빈 내부유로에서의 공기 물성치를 계산하였다. 계산된 여러 유로에서의 유동각들을 고려하여 익형의 형상을 설계하기 위한 설계변수들이 설정되었다. 설정된 형상변수로부터 정익은 C4 형상을 사용하여 설계되었으며 동익은 설계변수에 의하여 설계되었다. 정익은 일체형으로 제작되었으며 동익은 입사각의 변경에 따른 실험을 수행하기 위하여 분리형으로 제작하였다. 터빈입구에서의 공기력과 RPM에 따라서 터빈에서의 출력이 얻어졌으며 실험의 결과는 제작된 터빈이 반동터빈임에도 불구하고 입사각이 줄어드는 것에 비례하여 출력이 감소하는 현상을 보여주었으며 설계값에서 입사각이 7.5도 감소함에 따라 5%의 효율 감소가 발생되었다.

Air Starter motors are used for the start of medium-speed diesel engine. One of the main part of air starting motors is the axial turbine stage. In this study, design of 1-stage axial type turbine for 14kw class air starter motors has been performed. The turbine blade was designed based on mean-line analysis. 1-D design calculation and numerical analysis with CFD were conducted iteratively. The validation between 1-D design method and numerical analysis for axial clearance has been performed. It revealed that there is optimum axial clearance of turbine design.

In this paper, the mechanism of unsteady potential interaction and wake interaction in one stage axial turbine is numerically investigated at design point in two-dimensional viewpoint. The numerical technique used is the upwind scheme of Van-Leer's Flux Vector Splitting (FVS) and Cubic spline interpolation is applied on zonal interface between stator and rotor. The inviscid analysis is used to embody the influence of potential interaction only and viscous analysis is used to embody the influences of both potential interaction and wake interaction at the same time. The potential-flow disturbance from the stator into a rotor passage and the periodic blockage effect of rotor produce the unsteady pressure on the blade surface in inviscid analysis. After the wake is cut by rotor, two counterrotating votical patterns flanking the wake centerline in the passage are generated. So, these phenomena magnify the unsteady pressure in viscous analysis than that in inviscid analysis. The resulting unsteady forces on the rotor, generated by the combined interaction of the two effects by potential and wake interaction, are discussed.

In the present paper, we focus on the flow computation of a low head Propeller turbine at a wide range of design and off-design operating conditions. First, we will present the results on the efficiency hill chart prediction of the Propeller turbine and discuss the consequences of using non-homologous blade geometries for the CFD simulation. The flow characteristics of the entire turbine will be also investigated and compared with experimental data at different measurement planes. Two operating conditions are selected, the first one at the best efficiency point and the second one at part load condition. At the same time, for the same selected operating points, the numerical results for the entire turbine simulation will be compared with flow simulation with our standard stage calculation approach which includes only guide vane, runner and draft tube geometries.

This paper reports on the influence of blade surface roughness on turbine efficiency. The performance of a low speed one-stage axial turbine with roughened blade surfaces was evaluated. Sandpaper with equivalent sandgrain roughness ($k_s$) was used to roughen the blades. Efficiency (${\eta}/{\eta}_0$) decreases by 4.5 % with sandgrain size of 400 ${\mu}m$ on the stator suction surface.
