Mass flow rate measurement in a transonic turbine test facility with temperature distortion and swirl

Mass flow rate measurement in a transonic turbine test facility with temperature distortion and swirl

This paper describes the development and implementation of a system to perform accurate measurements of mass flow rate in the Isentropic Light Piston (Turbine) Facility (ILPF) at QinetiQ Farnborough. The facility has recently been upgraded so that turbine aerodynamic efficiency measurements can be p...
