A 3-D Navier-Stokes CFD code has been applied to analyze the complicated viscous driven flow in the centrifugal compressor impeller rear cavity of aeroengines. The caculation is compared with measurements. Three different configurations are analyzed. For each case the computed flow details provide valuable information for optimizing the engine design.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
