TL;DR: Recommendations are presented with regard to the most appropriate technique for various flow regimes and types of turbomachinery, incompressible and compressible flows, cascades, rotors, stators, liquid- handling, and gas-handling turbomachineries.

TL;DR: In this article, a single sensor hot wire probe was employed to determine the three mean velocity components of stator and IGV wakes of a single stage compressor, and the wake profiles indicated a varying decay rate of the tangential and axial wake velocity components.

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of rotor flow measurement techniques is presented, with particular reference to the measurement of the three-dimensional mean velocity, turbulence intensity, Reynolds stresses, static and stagnation pressures, and blade surface measurements.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the experimental study of the three-dimensional characteristics of the mean velocity in the wake of a moderately loaded compressor rotor blade, which was taken with a three-sensor hot-wire probe rotating with the rotor.

TL;DR: In this paper, an explicit, three-dimensional, coupled Navier-Stokes/k-∈ technique has been developed and successfully applied to complex internal flow calculations Several features of the procedure, which enable convergent and accurate calculation of high Reynolds number two-dimensional cascade flows, have been extended to three dimensions, including a low Reynolds number compressible form of the k∈ turbulence model, local time-step specification based on hyperbolic and parabolic stability requirements, and eigenvalue and local velocity scaling of artificial dissipation operators.
