Description
Summary:The paper is devoted to experimental verification of flow on the steam turbine axial exhaust hood model. The main goal of the submitted paper is to evaluate the influence of additional air blowing into the boundary layer in the axial exhaust hood on the change of the pressure recovery coefficient. The experimental model was supplemented with a blowing track and fitted with a centric orifice for mass flow measurement. Several variants were measured with various types of inner struts and supports inside the hood for two values of Mach number at the diffuser inlet.
