Large Eddy Simulations of Sand Transport and Deposition in the Internal Cooling Passages of Gas Turbine Blades

Large Eddy Simulations of Sand Transport and Deposition in the Internal Cooling Passages of Gas Turbine Blades

Jet engines often operate under dirty conditions where large amounts of particulate matter can be ingested, especially, sand, ash and dirt. Particulate matter in different engine components can lead to degradation in performance. The objective of this dissertation is to investigate sand transport an...
