This sensitivity study is focused on understanding the rate at which blade thickness can affect the risk of high-cycle fatigue failure in an impeller of a centrifugal compressor. The investigated ...

The transonic cascade wind tunnel (TGK) is installed at the Institute of Propulsion Technology in Cologne. This large-scale facility is used for investigations on compressor blade cascades; it is the ...

This study aims to quantify and assess qualitatively the impact of modeling simplifications used to represent inertial and aerodynamic loads on the stresses and structural deformations of a ...

The main advantages of studying on flat grids are the very good metrological and optical accessibility and the possibility to study aerodynamic and geometric parameters independently of each other, ...
