TL;DR: The origins and effects of loss in turbomachines are discussed in this article with the emphasis on trying to understand the physical origins of loss rather than on reviewing the available prediction methods.

TL;DR: In this paper, the limitations of CFD as used for routine turbomachinery design are discussed and examples of the differences they can cause in the predictions of the predictions are shown.

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of five different designs of transonic fans is analyzed by CFD and it is found that the 3D features have remarkably little effect on the shock pattern near the tip where the shock must remain perpendicular to the casing.

TL;DR: The NASA rotor 37 was used as a "blind" test case for turbomachinery CFD by the Turbomachinery Committee of the IGTI as mentioned in this paper, which represents the simplest possible type of test for 3D viscous flow solvers.
