Abstract

Due to a collaboration INPG, EDF and NEYRPIC an experimental database concerning the flow in stay and guide vanes, on an industrial test pattern of a turbine — pump has been achieved. The structure of the flow, be it steady or unsteady. has also been determined. An analysis of these flows as well as their evolution according to the functioning point have been determined. These data have been used as boundary lavers and validation data for a steady numerical calculation and are available for the unsteady calculations.
