Pin-fin shape and orientation effects on wall heat transfer predictions of gas turbine blade (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Effendy, M., Yao, Y., Yao, J., & Marchant, D. R. (2019). Pin-fin shape and orientation effects on wall heat transfer predictions of gas turbine blade. In EXPLORING RESOURCES, PROCESS AND DESIGN FOR SUSTAINABLE URBAN DEVELOPMENT: Proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Engineering, Technology, and Industrial Application (ICETIA) 2018 (020008). https://doi.org/10.1063/1.5112392

Turbine blades are often exposed to the ‘hot’ gas environment and thus it is essential to apply effective cooling technique to extend the blade lifetime. In the present work, wall heat transfer characteristics inside a blade trailing-edge coolant pas...

Numerical simulation of a turbulent flow over an axisymmetric hill (2012)
Conference Proceeding
Castagna, J., Yao, Y., & Yao, J. (2012). Numerical simulation of a turbulent flow over an axisymmetric hill. https://doi.org/10.2514/6.2012-98

Simulation of a turbulent °ow over an axisymmetric hill has been carried out to study three-dimensional °ow separation and reattachment that occur on the lee-side of the geome-try. A total of four simulations are considered at low Reynolds number of... Read More about Numerical simulation of a turbulent flow over an axisymmetric hill.
