Abstract. An extensive study of ring current injection and intensification of the storm-time ring current is conducted with three-dimensional (3-D) test particle trajectory calculations (TPTCs). The TPTCs reveal more accurately the process of ring current injection, with the main results being the following: (1) an intense convection electric field can effectively energize and inject plasma sheet particles into the ring current region within 1–3 h. (2) Injected ions often follow chaotic trajectories in non-adiabatic regions, which may have implications in storm and ring current physics. (3) The shielding electric field, which arises as a consequence of enhanced convection and co-exists with the injection and convection electric field, may cause the original open trajectories of injected ions with higher energy to change into closed ones, thus playing a role in the formation of the symmetric ring current.

This paper presents the results of a study to predict turbomachine blade erosion by particle laden flows. Using statistical methods, this work combines particle trajectory calculations with experimental erosion data to determine the erosion of blades. The results of the calculations are presented to show the different patterns of blade material removal distribution over the surface of twisted stator blades for different particle sizes.

Twisted Blade

Particle trajectory calculations provide the essential information required for predicting the pattern and intensity of turbomachinery erosion. Consequently, accurate flow field and blade geometry representation in the trajectory computational model are required to evaluate machine performance deterioration due to erosion. A model is presented that is simple and efficient yet versatile and general, applicable to axial, radial and mixed flow machines, and to inlets, nozzles, return passages and separators. Computations are presented for particle trajectories through a row of twisted vanes in the inlet flow field. The effect of the particle size on trajectory blade impacts, and on particle redistribution and separation are discussed.
