RESULTS OF CFD
Figure 8 shows relative Mach number contours at two
different flow rates on a stream surface 4.5mm from the casing.
(LDV Ⅲ) The numerical method is a modified Dawes’s BtoB3D code for
a double splitter impeller. The computational grids are shown
LDV Ⅱ in Fig.6, and the grid size is 60 x 141 x 35 with 296,100 nodes.
LDV Ⅰ The clearance is about 0.3% of the blade height at the leading
LDV 0 edge, and is expressed using 4 meshes. Blade structure is such
that the blade thickness becomes progressively less towards the
blade tips.

of the wall surface, not due to the shockwave.
