회전 환경에서의 축류 터빈 성능평가 = Axial Turbine Performance Evaluation in a Rotating Facility

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This paper describes a turbine test program conducted at Seoul National University(SNU). To measure blades' aerodynamic performance, either linear(2-Dimensional) or annular(3-Dimensional) cascades are often used. However, neither cascade can consider effects such as those due to rotation or rotor-stator interaction. Therefore, a rotating test facility for axial turbines has been designed and built at SNU, and its description is given in this paper. The results from an axial turbine performance test are presented. At the design point, the measured efficiency agrees with the efficiency predicted by a meanline analysis. At off design points, however, the measured and predicted efficiencies diverge. The most likely cause is hypothesized to be the inaccuracy of correlations used in the meanline analysis at off design points.
