Content Summary | A model for the prediction of the leakage vortex circulation was developed, based on the assumption that the leakage jet flow enters as a whole the vortex core, increasing its radius and its moment of momentum in the direction of the vortex axis. Using the assumption that the leakage vortex has a solid body rotation, an expression was derived for the vortex circulation, which demonstrates that this circulation is proportional to the square root of the corresponding tip clearance height. This theoretical result is supported by the available experimental data for both compressors and turbines. A simple model was developed, which demonstrates the ability of the proposed theory to calculate the leakage vortex circulation, provided that the vortex trace is known. | en |
