The current study describes experimental and computational work on the passive control of the steady and unsteady condensation shock waves, which are generated in a transonic nozzle. The bleed slots are installed on the contoured wall of the transonic nozzle in order to control the magnitude of the condensation shock wave and its oscillations. For computations, a droplet growth equation is incorporated into the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation systems. Computations are carried out using a third-order MUSCL type TVD finite-difference scheme with a second-order tractional time step. Baldwin-Lomax turbulence model is employed to close the governing equations. An experiment using an indraft transonic wind tunnel is made to validate the computational results. The current computations represented well the experimental flows. From both the experimental and computational results it is found that the magnitude of the condensation shock wave in the bleed slotted nozzle is significantly reduced, compared with no passive control of solid wall. The oscillations of the condensation shock wave are successfully suppressed by a bleed slot system.

The purpose of this study is to design the transonic centrifugal compressor impeller with splitter blades and analyze the flow fields with respect to various splitter blades. Seven impellers with different splitter chord length or pitchwise location were tested by using CFD method. To investigate aerodynamic performance, Mach number distribution and entropy distribution were confirmed. As a result, it is found that the size of transonic region and shock wave location are related to the splitter chord length and pitchwise location. Also the impeller with long chord length of splitter shows higher total pressure ratio but lower efficiency than those of the impeller with short chord length of splitter. In terms of pitchwise location, the impeller with the splitter located in mid-pitch of main blades shows the best performance with respect to pressure ratio and efficiency.

A forward-facing aerospike attached to a payload fairing of a satellite launch vehicle significantly alters its flowfield and decreases the aerodynamic drag in transonic and low supersonic speeds. The present payload fairing is an axisymmetric configuration and consists of a blunt-nosed body along with a conical section, payload shroud, boat tail and followed by a booster. The main purpose of the present numerical simulations is to evaluate flowfield and assess the performance of aerodynamic drag coefficient with and without aerospike attached to a payload fairing of a typical satellite launch vehicle in freestream Mach number range 0.8 ≤ M_∞ ≤ 3.0 and freestream Reynolds number range 33.35 × 10⁶/m ≤ Re_∞ ≤ 46.75 × 10⁶/m whichincludes the maximum aerodynamic drag and maximum dynamic conditions during ascent flight trajectory of the satellite launch vehicle. A numerical simulation has been carried out to solve time-dependent compressible turbulent axisymmetric Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations. The closure of the system of equations is achieved using the Baldwin-Lomax turbulence model. The aerodynamic drag reduction mechanism is analysed employing numerical results such as velocity vector plots, density and Mach contours in conjunction with the experimental flow visualization pictures. The variations of wall pressure coefficient over the payload fairing with and without aerospike are exhibiting different kind of flowfield characteristics in the transonic and low supersonic speeds. The numerically computed results are compared with schlieren pictures, oil flow patterns and measured wall pressure distributions and exhibit good agreement between them.

The airfoil design optimization procedures based on the Navier-Stokes equations were developed, This procedure enables more realistic and practical transonic airfoil designs. The modified Hicks-Henne functions were used to generate the shape of airfoils. Five Hick-Henne functions were used to design upper surface of airfoil only. To enhance the ability of Hick-Henne function to generate various airfoil shape with limited number of functions, the positions of control points were adjusted through optimization procedure. The design procedure was applied to the single-point design for the drag minimization problem with lift and area constraints. The result shows the capability of the procedure to generate much realistic airfoils with very small drag-creep in the low transonic regime. This is mainly due to the viscosity effect of Navier-Stokes flow analysis. However, in the higher transonic range tile drag-creep appears. The multi-point design is shown to be an effective way to avoid the drag-creep and improve off-design performance which is very similar in the Euler design.

Transonic flow past a NASA SC(2)-0710 airfoil with deployments of a spoiler up to $6^{\circ}$ was studied numerically. We consider angles of attack from $-0.6^{\circ}$ to $0.6^{\circ}$ and free-stream Mach numbers from 0.81 to 0.86. Solutions of the unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations were obtained with a finite-volume solver using several turbulence models. Both stationary and time-dependent deployments of the spoiler were examined. The study revealed the existence of narrow bands of the Mach number, angle of attack, and spoiler deflection angle, in which the flow was extremely sensitive to small perturbations. Simulations of 3D flow past a swept wing confirmed the flow sensitivity to small perturbations of boundary conditions.

For the calculation of transonic laminar relative flow fields on the axisymmetric H-S and B-B stream surfaces in turbomachinery, a finite volume method developed in Part (I) is extended. Energy equation is replaced for simplicity by the condition of constant rothalpy throughout the flow fields. For axisymmetric H-S flow the circumferential componets of absolute velocity are given in advance so that this component of momentum equations can be neglected. Some numerical results show good agreement with experimental data.

CSCM upwind flux difference splitting compressible Navier-Stokes method has been used to predict the transonic flows in a centrifugal compressor diffuser. The modified cyclic. TDMA and the mass flux boundary conditions were used as boundary conditions of the diffuser analysis. Broad flow separation on the suction surface near the hub and shroud was observed from the results of the mass flow rates 5.8, 6.0 and 6.2kg/s at 27000 rpm. The three-dimensional flow analysis predicted successfully that the static pressure increased and the total pressure decreased through the flow passage of the channel diffuser when compared to two-dimensional analysis due to the strong effect of the three-dimensional flow. The mass averaged loss coefficients and pressure coefficients were also studied.

This paper presents a numerical investigation of the effect of the rotation speed on the performance in a transonic axial compressor with the dihedral stator. Four stator geometries with different stacking line variables were tested in the flow simulations over the whole operating range. It was found that a large shroud loss at the rotor outlet and the subsequent shroud corner separation in the stator passage occurred at low mass flow rate with the 100 % design speed. The hub dihedral stator could suppress the shroud loss region and consequently improve the stall margin. In case of the 70 % design speed condition as the mass flow rate decreased, it was seen that the high loss region was placed at the midspan of the rotor passage. The dihedral stator slightly affected the local diffusion factor, but the performance of the compressor was not changed.

This paper presents a numerical investigation of the effect of the dihedral stator on the loss in a transonic axial compressor. Four stator geometries with different stacking line variables are tested in the flow simulations over the whole operating range. It is found that a large shroud loss at the rotor outlet and the subsequent shroud corner separation in the stator passage occur at low mass flow rate. The hub dihedral stator and bowed blade generate unexpected hub-corner-separation, thereby causing a large total pressure loss over the entire operating range. However, the corresponding blockage forces the high momentum flow near the hub to divert toward the upper part of the passage suppressing the negative axial velocity region. The dihedral stator increases deflection angle and secondary vorticity near the endwall where the dihedral is applied. As a result, the endwall loss which is related to the endwall relative velocity decreases.
