Numerical Modelling of Flow around a Turbine Blade

e third grid to analyse the effects of changing inlet angle and changing inlet velocity (i.e higher Reynolds number). The details of the grids are given below.First Grid: Relatively coarse grid of app ... t s:Initially the simulations run on each grid were for same boundary conditions where the value of Reynolds number was 150,000 and the value of incident angle α was 37.7. For these conditions t ...
