Book excerpt: Modeling enhancements made to a radial-inflow turbine conceptual design code are documented in this report. A stator-endwall clearance-flow model was added for use with pivoting vanes. The rotor calculations were modified to account for swept blades and splitter blades. Stator and rotor trailing-edge losses and a vaneless-space loss were added to the loss model. Changes were made to the disk-friction and rotor-clearance loss calculations. The loss model was then calibrated based on experimental turbine performance. A complete description of code input and output along with sample cases are included in the report. Glassman, Arthur J. Unspecified Center NAG3-1165; RTOP 505-69-50...
