Experimental and Numerical Investigations of Flowpath Profiling on Secondary Flow Losses in a Turbine Control Stage

Abstract: The numerically and experimentally investigated industrial steam turbine control stage is derived from a real design. Due to the production process and costs of the guide vanes for control stages of steam turbines the flowpath profiling is rotationally symmetric. However the combination of the two-dimensional shroud contour and the flow deflection in the guide vane results in a fully three-dimensional end wall contour having a strong influence on the secondary flow features in the turbine control stage. … Show more

“…For the experiment, total inlet temperature of the Air (drawn from the environment) is set to 320.15K in the settling chamber and the inlet pressure is determined by the pressure ratio with environmental pressure at the outlet. As mentioned by Moser et al (2013), under full admission average Mach numbers reach from 0.67 to 1.1 and Reynolds numbers lay between 5.6 • 10 5 and 8.2 • 10 5 . The transition from a circular cross section in the settling chamber to the ring-shape of the inlet is realized with curved structures, including a korbbogen head, not reproducing the typical structure of block nozzle segments.…”

“…An axial-flow air turbine containing a control stage, located at the laboratory of turbomachinery of the Helmut Schmidt University in Hamburg is utilized for the experiment, as displayed in Figure 1 (a) and (b). The control stage had already been investigated under full admission with a plane and a contoured rotationally symmetric shroud sided endwall by Moser et al (2013), as seen in Figure 1 (d). The plane endwall variant serves as a reference to the contoured endwall variant.…”

“…Moser et al [8] designed an optimized radially profiled axisymmetric casing for a guide vane of a steam turbine stage that reduced the stage loss over a wide range of pressure ratios. Kumar and Govardhan [9] applied a streamwise end wall fence to reduce secondary flow losses in a linear turbine cascade.…”
