Effect of inlet turbulence on compressible flow through the tip-section turbine blade cascade with supersonic inlet

The contribution deals with the numerical simulation of 2D compressible flow though the tip-section turbine blade cascade with the supersonic inlet boundary conditions. The simulation was carried out by the in-house numerical code using the explicit algebraic Reynolds stress model completed by the bypass transition model with the algebraic equation for the intermittency coefficient. The gamma-Re model implemented in the commercial code Fluent was used for the comparison. Predictions carried out for the nominal conditions were focused on the effect of inlet free-stream turbulence on the flow structure in the blade cascade under supersonic inlet conditions. Numerical results were compared with experimental data.
