DTIC ADA034422: Through-Flow Calculations in Axial Turbomachinery

The Conference Proceedings contain the papers presented at the Propulsion and Energetics Panel Specialists' Meeting held on the 20 and 21 May 1976 DFVLR, Porz-Wahn, near Cologne, Germany. The purpose of the meeting was to review the current knowledge, methods and techniques available to evaluate the flow pattern at design and off-design conditions in single and multi-stage turbomachines, inside and outside the bladings along the meridional surface, concentrating on the axisymmetric approach. The meeting comprised two review papers, seven papers on particular methods, two papers describing the various test cases - for both compressors and turbines - which were sent to firms and institutes for calculation by different methods, and two papers discussing the results of calculations with experimental data. There was a Round Table discussion at the end of the meeting which is included herein in its entirety. Conclusions drawn from this meeting are presented in the Technical Evaluation Report as well as suggestions for future course of actions.
