Mixed Reaction

Infrared chemiluminescence from the product molecule HF (DF) was observed for the F + CH4(CD4) and F + CHCl3 reactions under low-pressure flow conditions. The reactions with methane and deuterated methane showed the well-known vibrational inversion effect. For the mixed reaction situation F + CH4(CD4) + CHCl3 it can be shown by switching between CH4 and CD4 that no special relaxation effects are present. The HF (DF) spectra can be explained by results from the isolated reactions. A non-inverted distribution was confirmed for F + CHCl3.

Based on detailed experimental work conducted at a low speed test facility, this paper describes the transition process in the presence of a separation bubble with low Reynolds number, low free-stream turbulence, and steady main flow conditions. A pressure distribution has been created on a long flat plate by means of a contoured wall opposite of the plate, matching the suction side of a modern low-pressure turbine aerofoil. The main flow conditions for four Reynolds numbers, based on suction surface length and nominal exit velocity, were varied from 80,000 to 300,000, which covers the typical range of flight conditions. Velocity profiles and the overall flow field were acquired in the boundary layer at several streamwise locations using hot-wire anemometry. The data given is in the form of contours for velocity, turbulence intensity, and turbulent intermittency. The results highlight the effects of Reynolds number, the mechanisms of separation, transition, and reattachment, which feature laminar separation-long bubble and laminar separation-short bubble modes. For each Reynolds number, the onset of transition, the transition length, and the general characteristics of separated flow are determined. These findings are compared to the measurement results found in the literature. Furthermore, the experimental data is compared with two categories of correlation functions also given in the literature: (1) correlations predicting the onset of transition and (2) correlations predicting the mode of separated flow transition. Moreover, it is shown that the type of instability involved corresponds to the inviscid Kelvin-Helmholtz instability mode at a dominant frequency that is in agreement with the typical ranges occurring in published studies of separated and free-shear layers.

Pressure Exchange

A pressure-exchange ejector transferring energy by compression and expansion waves has the potential for higher efficiency. The width and position of each port are essential in pressure-exchange ejector design. A dimensionless time τ expressing both port widths and the positions of port ends was introduced. A prototype was designed and the experimental system was set up. Many sets of experiment with different geometrical arrangements were conducted. The results suggest that the efficiency greatly changes with the geometrical arrangements. The efficiency is about 60% at proper port widths and positions, while at improper geometrical arrangements, the efficiency is much lower and the maximum deviation may reach about 20%. The proper dimensionless port widths and positions at different operating conditions are obtained. For a fixed overall pressure ratio, the widths of the high pressure flow inlet and middle pressure flow outlet increase as the outlet pressure increases and the low pressure flow inlet width is reduced with a larger outlet pressure. The middle pressure flow outlet (MO) opening end remains constant at different outlet pressures. The positions of the high pressure flow inlet (HI) closed end and the low pressure flow inlet (LI) open end increase with the elevation of outlet pressure, however, the distance between the HI closing end and the LI opening end is constant. The port widths and positions have a significant influence on the performance of the pressure-exchange ejector. The dimensionless data obtained are very valuable for pressure-exchange ejector design and performance optimization.

Abstract A particular turbine cascade design is presented with the goal of providing a basis for high quality investigations of endwall flow at high-speed flow conditions and unsteady inflow. The key feature of the design is an integrated two-part flat plate serving as a cascade endwall at part-span, which enables a variation of the inlet endwall boundary layer conditions. The new design is applied to the T106A low pressure turbine cascade for endwall flow investigations in the High-Speed Cascade Wind Tunnel of the Institute of Jet Propulsion at the Bundeswehr University Munich. Measurements are conducted at realistic flow conditions (M2th = 0.59, Re2th = 2·105) in three cases of different endwall boundary layer conditions with and without periodically incoming wakes. The endwall boundary layer is characterized by 1D-CTA measurements upstream of the blade passage. Secondary flow is evaluated by Five-hole-probe measurements in the turbine exit flow. A strong similarity is found between the time-averaged effects of unsteady inflow conditions and the effects of changing inlet endwall boundary layer conditions regarding the attenuation of secondary flow. Furthermore, the experimental investigations show, that all design goals for the improved T106A cascade are met.

The role of cardiac interstitial adenosine as an important metabolite in coronary autoregulation has not been established. We therefore measured steady-state cardiac interstitial adenosine concentration at a high and a low coronary inflow pressure using an epicardial diffusion well in anesthetized dogs. Although coronary resistance for the high and low pressure points showed highly significant differences (P less than 0.001), adenosine averaged 302 +/- 98 and 286 +/- 91 (SD) pmol/ml for the high and low pressure points, respectively (P greater than 0.20). Cardiac interstitial adenosine concentration was then measured with and without an intracoronary infusion of adenosine deaminase catalytic subunit. Adenosine averaged 28 +/- 21 (SD) pmol/ml during the infusion compared with 281 +/- 68 during control conditions (P less than 0.001). Finally, pressure-flow relations were obtained with and without the adenosine deaminase infusion, and there was no loss of autoregulation in the pressure of adenosine deaminase. These findings indicate that intracoronary adenosine deaminase markedly reduces interstitial adenosine concentration, that cardiac interstitial adenosine concentration remains constant during autoregulation, and that the coronary bed autoregulates normally when interstitial adenosine is reduced to levels close to zero. We conclude that cardiac interstitial adenosine concentration is not an important component in coronary autoregulation.
