The report is a study organized by the AGARD Propulsion and Energetics Panel with the collaboration of the Fluid Dynamics Panel and contains the papers, discussions and conclusions from the culminating meeting held at ONERA, France, during April 1972. The study provided opportunities for fruitful exchanges between aerodynamicists and engine specialists concerned with turbomachines, from the major aeronautical nations within NATO. The study resulted in clarification of the current states of knowledge within the two specialities relevant to turbomachines and highlighted the interest and importance of past and current research, while the discussions indicated a number of avenues for further work.

An investigation of secondary-flow loss cores originating in turbine nozzle blade passages was conducted by means of flow visualization studies and detailed flow measurements. The degree of which blade surface velocity profiles affect the magnitude and concentration of loss cores was investigated by comparing three nozzle blade configurations.

With this second revised and extended edition, the readers have a solid source of information for designing state-of-the art turbomachinery components and systems at hand. Based on fundamental principles of turbomachinery thermo-fluid mechanics, numerous CFD based calculation methods are being developed to simulate the complex 3-dimensional, highly unsteady turbulent flow within turbine or compressor stages. The objective of this book is to present the fundamental principles of turbomachinery fluid-thermodynamic design process of turbine and compressor components, power generation and aircraft gas turbines in a unified and compact manner. The book provides senior undergraduate students, graduate students and engineers in the turbomachinery industry with a solid background of turbomachinery flow physics and performance fundamentals that are essential for understanding turbomachinery performance and flow complexes. While maintaining the unifying character of the book structure in this second revised and extended edition all chapters have undergone a rigorous update and enhancement. Accounting for the need of the turbomachinery community, three chapters have been added, that deal with computationally relevant aspects of turbomachinery design such as boundary layer transition, turbulence and boundary layer.

Over the past three decades turbomachines experienced a steep increase in efficiency and performance. Based on fundamental principles of turbomachinery thermo-fluid mechanics, numerous CFD based calculation methods are being developed to simulate the complex 3-dimensional, highly unsteady turbulent flow within turbine or compressor stages. The objective of this book is to present the fundamental principals of turbomachinery fluid-thermodynamic design process of turbine and compressor components, power generation and aircraft gas turbines in a unified and compact manner. The book provides senior undergraduate students, graduate students and engineers in the turbomachinery industry with a solid background of turbomachinery flow physics and performance fundamentals that are essential for understanding turbomachinery performance and flow complexes.
