BookSeries: Cambridge aerospace series: 44.Publisher: Cambridge : Cambridge University Press, 2018Description: 1 online resource (xviii, 356 pages) : digital, PDF file(s).Content type: text Media type: computer Carrier type: online resourceISBN: 9781316755686 (ebook).Subject(s): Gas-turbines -- Fluid dynamics -- Mathematics | Gas flow -- Mathematical modelsAdditional physical formats: Print version: : No titleDDC classification: 621.43/3 Online resources: Click here to access online Summary: This long-awaited, physics-first and design-oriented text describes and explains the underlying flow and heat transfer theory of secondary air systems. An applications-oriented focus throughout the book provides the reader with robust solution techniques, state-of-the-art three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methodologies, and examples of compressible flow network modeling. It clearly explains elusive concepts of windage, non-isentropic generalized vortex, Ekman boundary layer, rotor disk pumping, and centrifugally-driven buoyant convection associated with gas turbine secondary flow systems featuring rotation. The book employs physics-based, design-oriented methodology to compute windage and swirl distributions in a complex rotor cavity formed by surfaces with arbitrary rotation, counter-rotation, and no rotation. This text will be a valuable tool for aircraft engine and industrial gas turbine design engineers as well as graduate students enrolled in advanced special topics courses.
