AbstractIn these notes we present some results concerning the existence of global smooth solutions to the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations set in the whole space. We are particularly interested in the stability of the set of initial data giving rise to a global smooth solution.

Part II of this paper compares the aerodynamic damping of a modern Low Pressure Turbine (LPT) interlock bladed-disc to the one obtained when the blades are welded in pairs through the lateral face of the shroud. The damping is computed using the linearized Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations on a moving grid. It is concluded that the increase in stability of the welded-pair with respect the cantilever configuration due to the modification of the mode-shapes, is smaller than the one due to the overall raise of the reduced frequencies of a bladed-disc with an interlock design. The modification of the flutter boundaries due to mistuning effects is taken into account using the reduced order model known as the Fundamental Mistuning Model (FMM). It is shown that the modification on the stability limit of a interlock bladed-disc is negligible, while for a welded-pair configuration an increase of 0.15% on the critical damping may be expected. Two realistic welded-pair bladed-discs are analysed in this work. It is shown that both are aerodynamically unstable, which is in agreement with the experimental observations. Critical reduced frequency stability maps accounting for mistuning effects are derived for both, freestanding and welded in pairs airfoils. The airfoils are assumed to be identical and mechanically uncoupled. The stabilizing effect of mistuning is also retained in these maps.

Three-dimensional oscillatory airflows induced by a rotating grass-cutting blade in a cylindrical chamber are studied experimentally and numerically in this paper. Experimental pressure results are obtained using a sound pressure transducer and a data acquisition system. The measured pressure data contain background noise and high-frequency sound signals due to the blade vibrations. The background noise is separately measured; its effect on the signal is determined from a spectral subtraction algorithm. A time-accurate finite volume numerical solution to the three-dimensional incompressible unsteady Navier–Stokes equations is also sought using the sliding frame technique and the unstructured tetrahedral mesh. Convergence studies are conducted using various combinations of mesh sizes and time increments to ensure the stability of the numerical scheme. The experimental and numerical pressure results are in good agreement.

The hybrid finite-analytic (HFA) method for discretization of a three-dimensional advection-diffusion equation is developed using the superposition of the HFA solutions of locally linearized one-dimensional advection-diffusion equations. An example calculation of a system of three-dimensional nonlinear equations is conducted to test the convergence and accuracy of the 7-point numerical scheme. Good agreements between calculated and analytical solutions are obtained. An algorithm based on the HFA method with multigrid technique and Gauss-Seidel iteration is also developed to solve the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations in a staggered grid system. The stability and efficiency of the method are demonstrated by performing calculations of the fluid flow in a three-dimensional cubic cavity with a moving top wall. The proposed procedure is observed to exhibit good rates of smoothing and almost grid-independent convergence rates in comparison with a single-grid iteration method. The results are in excellent agreement with other published computational results.

In this paper, the rotor geometries of two consecutive design loops are compared numerically with respect to aeroelastic stability. Therefore, the TRACE code of the German Aerospace Center DLR is used to compute the flutter predictions: based on a three-dimensional steady solution, the time-linearized Navier-Stokes equations are solved in order to assess the aerodynamic damping so that the critical inter-blade phase angles can be determined. Apart from the global stability behaviour the computation of local excitation per surface area is presented, facilitating the identification of stabilizing and destabilizing effects due to blade motion and flow field disturbances. Aiming for flutter-free design of compressor blades, an exemplary sensitivity analysis on the first mode is performed. Within the scope of this study, reduced frequency and mass ratio are varied and the influence of these parameters on the stability behaviour is deduced. For a tuned system, the nondimensional flutter equations are derived introducing the flutter index as aeroelastic similarity parameter. Differing tendencies of the aerodynamic work entry and the corresponding logarithmic decrement concerning flutter susceptibility are discussed in detail.

AbstractWe study an initial-boundary value problem of the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations in the exterior of a cylinder $\Pi =\{x=(x_{h}, x_3)\ \vert \vert x_{h} \vert \gt 1\}$, subject to the slip boundary condition. We construct unique global solutions for axisymmetric initial data $u_0\in L^{3}\cap L^{2}(\Pi )$ satisfying the decay condition of the swirl component $ru^{\theta }_{0}\in L^{\infty }(\Pi )$.
