Entrainment of Swirled Axial Throughflow in a Rotating Compressor Cavity under Centrifugal Buoyancy-Driven Convection
Future jet engine compressors are expected to feature overall pressure ratios (OPR) that approach 70:1. The core of the compressor will downsize with higher OPR, increasing the importance of managing blade-tip clearance. This clearance is influenced by compressor rotor expansion, which is dictated by the flow structu...
