Comparison of Temperature Profile and Heat Transfer Predictions With Statistically Modeled Data From a Cooled 1 1 2 Stage High Pressure Transonic Turbine

2013-06-03
This paper compares predictions from a 3-D Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes code and a statistical representation of measurements from a cooled 1-1/2 stage high-pressure transonic turbine to quantify predictive process sensitivity. A multivariable regression technique was applied to both the inlet temperature measurements obtained at the inlet rake, and the wall temperature and heat transfer measurements obtained via heat-flux gauges on the blade airfoil surfaces. By using the statistically-modeled temperature profiles to generate the inlet boundary conditions for the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis, the sensitivity of blade heat transfer predictions due to the variation in the inlet temperature profile and uncertainty in wall temperature measurements and surface roughness is calculated. All predictions are performed with and without cooling. Heat transfer predictions match reasonably well with the statistical representation of the data, both with and without cooling. Predictive precision for this study is driven primarily by inlet profile uncertainty followed by surface roughness and gauge position uncertainty.

Observability and Criticality Analyses for Power Systems Measured by Phasor Measurements
Göl, Murat (2013-08-01)
This paper proposes observability and measurement criticality analysis methods for any type of current phasor measurement configurations. Measurement Jacobian cannot be decoupled when using current phasor measurements and thus conventional methods of network observability analysis can no longer be used. Current phasor measurements may be classified into two types based on their configuration. Depending on whether there is a voltage phasor measurement at the sending end of the measured line or not, a current...
Evaluation and Comparisons of the Models to Calculate Solar Irradiation on Inclined Solar Panels for Ankara
Özden, Talat; Akınoğlu, Bülent Gültekin; Karaveli, Abdullah Buğrahan (2017-11-29)
In the optimization and feasibility analysis of renewable energy systems, the accuracy of the simulation methods is extremely important. Thus, in the case of solar energy systems, estimating the monthly average daily solar irradiation incident on inclined solar panels is the main step of long-term feasibility analysis toward reaching the viable investments. In fact, most solar energy investor companies use silicon solar irradiation measuring instruments in Turkey although only a few of them also measure the...
Design and performance analysis of a pump-turbine system using computational fluid dynamics
Yıldız, Mehmet; Albayrak, Kahraman; Çelebioğlu, Kutay; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2011)
In this thesis, a parametric methodology is investigated to design a Pump-Turbine system using Computational Fluid Dynamics ( CFD ). The parts of Pump-Turbine are created parametrically according to the experience curves and theoretical design methods. Then, these parts are modified to obtain 500 kW turbine working as a pump with 28.15 meters head. The final design of Pump-Turbine parts are obtained by adjusting parameters according to the results of the CFD simulations. The designed parts of the Pump-Turbi...
Measurement of the inclusive 3-jet production differential cross section in proton-proton collisions at 7 TeV and determination of the strong coupling constant in the TeV range
Khachatryan, V.; et. al. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2015-05-01)
This paper presents a measurement of the inclusive 3-jet production differential cross section at a proton-proton centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5 fb(-1) collected with the CMS detector. The analysis is based on the three jets with the highest transverse momenta. The cross section is measured as a function of the invariant mass of the three jets in a range of 445-3270 GeV and in two bins of the maximum rapidity of the jets up to a value of 2. A compari...
