7-11 June 2021
Another virtual Turbo Expo due to the Covid pandemic, without any possibility to meet people and friends. Despite that, we presented several technical papers:
- Scale Resolving CFD Investigations of Aerothermal Field and Emissions of a Lean Burn Aeroengine Combustor
- Activity on an Avio Aero lean-burn combustor in partnership with Ansys, testing different modelling approaches
- Assessment of CFD Models for Multiphase Heat Transfer in Different Boiling Regimes
- Activity with Avio, benchmarking models for the prediction of heat transfer and boiling (relevant in several space applications)
- Effect of Jet-to-Jet Distance and Pipe Position on Flow and Heat Transfer Features of Active Clearance Control Systems
- Another paper from the ACCENTO project, presenting some results at low-temperature ratio at different geometrical and fluid-dynamic conditions
- Reduced-Order Models for Effusion Modelling in Gas Turbine Combustors
- The outcome of the huge effort done by Simone Paccati during his PhD thesis, aiming at developing a high-fidelity film cooling model
- On the Extrapolation of Rim Sealing Performance From Test Bench to Real Engine: A Numerical Survey
- The work with UNIFI and Baker Hughes was propaedeutic to the next activities focused on the design of a new rotating rig with innovative experimental techniques for measuring the sealing effectiveness
- Calibration of a CFD Methodology for The Simulation of Roughness Effects on Friction and Heat Transfer in Additive Manufactured Components
- The second paper on the topic, this presented by myself
