Axial Thrust, Disk Frictional Losses, and Heat Transfer in a Gas Turbine Disk Cavity

The gas turbine is a kind of high-power and high-performance energy machine. Currently, it is a hot issue to improve the efficiency of the gas turbines by reducing the amount of secondary air used in the disk cavity. The precondition is to understand the effects of the through-flow rate on the axial...
