The Effect of the Turbine Airfoil Shape on its Aerodynami...
Designing the low pressure stages of large gas turbinesrequires extraordinary attention to account for aeroelasticphenomena and its mitigations. A very hazardousphenomenon is fl utter, a self-excited form of vibration, which is caused by fl uid energy transferred into the bladestructure. To mitigate fl utter the designer can chose betweenaerodynamic and mechanical measures. The present workfocus on the impact of the ...
