A Design Method for the Profiling of End Walls in Turbines (2002)
Conference Proceeding
Gregory-Smith, D., & Hartland, J. (2002). A Design Method for the Profiling of End Walls in Turbines.

The profiling of end walls in turbines has proved to be effective in reducing secondary flows and losses in turbines, both in cascades and in a turbine representative rig. This paper presents a simple method for the design of end walls using the phil... Read More about A Design Method for the Profiling of End Walls in Turbines.

The effect of end-wall profiling on secondary flow and loss development in a turbine cascade (2002)
Conference Proceeding
Ingram, G., Gregory-Smith, D., Rose, M., Harvey, N., & Brennan, G. (2002). The effect of end-wall profiling on secondary flow and loss development in a turbine cascade.

The potential for loss reduction by using non-axisymmetric end-wall profiling has been demonstrated in the so called “Durham” cascade (Hartland et al [1]) and in a turbine representative rig (Brennan et al [2] and Rose et al [3]). This paper aim to e... Read More about The effect of end-wall profiling on secondary flow and loss development in a turbine cascade.
