- Enable unobstructed 2 and 3 dimensional particle imaging velocimetry (PIV) and holographic (HPIV) measurements within entire stage of an axial flow turbomachine.
- Study Unsteady flow phenomena Rotor stator interaction Secondary flows Tip leakage Hub vortices
- Identify sources of noise and pressure fluctuations
- Generate data for development in turbulence models: Passage averaged, steady RANS Unsteady RANS Large eddy simulation
- Study the effect of inlet conditions (such as, inflow turbulence level and non-uniformities)
- Future extentions: Instantaneous velocity fileds condistional upon certain variables such as, wall pressure on blade surface
