Experimental Study of Effects of Grooved Tip Clearances on the Flow Field in a Compressor Cascade Passage
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper presents an experimental investigation of effects of grooved tip clearances on the flow field of a compressor cascade. The tests were performed in a low-speed large-scale cascade, respectively, with two tip-clearance configurations, including the flat tip and the grooved tip with a chordwise channel on the blade top. The flow field at 10% chord downstream from the cascade trailing edge was measured at four incidence angles using a mini five-hole pressure probe. The static pressure distribution was measured on the tip endwall. The results show that the pressure gradient from the pressure side to the suction side on the blade tip is reduced due to the existence of the channel. As a result, the leakage flow is weakened. The high-blockage and high-loss region caused by the leakage flow is narrower with the grooved tip. In the meantime, the leakage flow migrates to lower span-wise position. The combined result is that the flow capacity in the tip region is improved at the incidence angles of 0 deg and 5 deg with the grooved tip. However, the loss is slightly greater than that with the flat tip at all the incidence angles.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
