Abstract
Two "state-of-the-art" computer programs, Q3DFLOW and a standard
Cebeci boundary layer program as applied to aerodynamic flows in
a cascade are examined. Q3DFLOW is a quasi three-dimensional finite
element turbomachinery program. Only the incompressible blade-to-blade
module of this program is used. The Cebeci boundary layer
program is for incompressible, two dimensional, and constant viscosity
flows. It is used to calculate boundary layers on a few isolated airfoils
and airfoils/blades in a cascade. Experimental data and other analytical
computations are compared for both programs. Additionally, the theory
and operation of the Cebeci boundary layer program are presented.
