Experimental Investigation of Centrifugal Flow in Rotor–Stator Cavities at High Reynolds Numbers >10<sup>8</sup>

The designers of radial turbomachinery need detailed information on the impact of the side chamber flow on axial thrust and torque. A previous paper investigated centripetal flow through narrow rotor–stator cavities and compared axial thrust, rotor torque and radial pressure distribution to the case...
