Abstract:In high-speed gear systems for aeroengines, reducing the fluid dynamic loss, which accounts for the majority of power loss, can significantly improve fuel economy. However, few practical numerical examples are available regarding high-speed gas-liquid two-phase flows involving gear meshing and gear shrouds (gear enclosures, which are effective for loss reduction).
Therefore, in this study, the porosity method for object boundaries including the gear meshing, the volume of fluid method, and the s… Show more
