Aerodynamics of Turbines and Compressors. (HSA-1), Volume 1


Book Description

Volume X of the High Speed Aerodynamics and Jet Propulsion series. Contents include: Theory of Two-Dimensional Flow through Cascades; Three-Dimensional Flow in Turbomachines; Experimental Techniques; Flow in Cascades; The Axial Compressor Stage; The Supersonic Compressor; Aerodynamic Design of Axial Flow Turbines; The Radial Turbine; The Centrifugal Compressor; Intermittent Flow Effects. Originally published in 1964. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
















A General Theory of Three-dimensional Flow in Subsonic and Supersonic Turbomachines of Axial-, Radial-, and Mixed-flow Types


Book Description

Presents a general theory of steady three-dimensional flow of a nonviscous fluid in turbomachines having arbitrary hub and casing shapes and a finite number of blades. Solution of a three-dimensional direct and inverse problem is obtained by investigating an appropriate combination of two-dimensional flows on relative stream surfaces whose intersections with a z-plane either upstream of or somewhere inside the blade row form a circular arc or a radial line. The theory is applicable to both irrotational and rotational absolute flow at the inlet of the blade row and at both design and off-design operations.
