Flutter methodology using reduced order aeroelastic model
Prasad, Chandra Shekhar ; Pešek, Luděk ; Šnábl, Pavel
The present research project is focused on development of fast and efficient numerical method based on reduced order aeroelastic method (ROAM) for modeling and analysis of \nclassical flutter in the low pressure (LP) stage steam turbine blade. Stability diagram such as aerodynamic damping (AD) of aeroelasticity of cascade of 3D turbine blades used as a prime \ncharacterization factor. In the calculation of the S-curve/AD, the problem of classical flutter formation associated with running waves is considered here. Running waves is simulated by \nthe inter-blade phase shift of the blades in the cascade. Panel method based boundary element flow solver is employed for calculation of unsteady aerodynamic forces. This method is good \ncompromise of speed and accuracy for the estimation of the stability of the blades on a classical flutter. One way loose coupling technique between PM based flow solver and the structural \nmodel. For the structural part modal model synthesis (MMS) method is adopted in the ROAM solver. MMS is adopted to further reduced the computational cost. The ROAM simulated AD \nand pressure distribution over blade is compared high fidelity CFD data on real blade geometry provided by Doosan Skoda Power s.r.o. Furthermore, the ROAM results are also compared \nwith experimentally obtained results on two different linear cascade. The ROAM model shows good agreement with linear cascade results, however, there is noticeable discrepancy with real blade CFD results.

Modification of the Algebraic Transition Model for Wall Roughness Effect Including a Rough Strip
Straka, P. ; Příhoda, Jaromír
The contribution deals with the simulation of the laminar/turbulent transition on a rough wall. The algebraic transition model taking into account wall roughness according to Straka and Příhoda [8] was further extended for the effect of short rough strip near the leading edge. The proposed correlation was tested by means of incompressible flow over a flat plate covered by sand paper and around the NACA 0012 airfoil with a rough strip near the leading edge. The agreement with experiments is appropriate nevertheless the applicability of the correlation is limited due to the lack of relevant experimental results.
The measurement of the heterogeneous particles in the steam
Bartoš, Ondřej ; Hrubý, Jan ; Ždímal, Vladimír ; Kolovratník, Michal ; Jiříček, I. ; Moravec, Pavel ; Zíková, Naděžda
The aim of this extended abstract is to reveal the work done as cooperation between several institutions which was presented and published in recent years (Kolovratník, 2014). The formation of droplets in low-pressure steam turbines has a significant impact on the efficiency of energy conversion due to the strongly nonequilibrium nature of this process . The condensed water also erodes the turbine blades. A very important question is to what extent heterogeneous nucleation contributes to the phase transition process . In the case of heterogeneous nucleation , the number of droplets depends only on the number of h eterogeneous particles in the system, whereas in the case of homogeneous nucleation, the number of created droplets is determined rather by the expansion rate - in a faster expansion, greater supersaturation and more droplets are formed until the released condensation enthalpy quenches the nucleation.\nThe specific number of droplets (number of droplets per unit mass of steam) formed in the turbine can be determined by optical probes, developed first by Walters and later in the Czech Republic improved by Petr and Kolovratník. Until recently, no information was available on the relative importance of heterogeneous nucleation in forming these droplets.
