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...

Surface flow modification of aerofoils for automative racing car application (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Allarton, R., Cliford, T., Hitchborn, B., Parker, L., Shaw, J., & Yao, J. (2019, June). Surface flow modification of aerofoils for automative racing car application. Paper presented at The Eighth International Symposium on Physics of Fluid (ISPF8), Xian, China

An aerofoil which is commonly used in aerospace engineering to produce lift is also employed in the motorsport industry to produce downforce for improving traction in cornering. This paper investigates aerofoil surface modification through ‘golf ball... Read More about Surface flow modification of aerofoils for automative racing car application.

Assessment of stress-blended eddy simulation model for accurate prediction of three-straight-bladed vertical axis wind turbine performance (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Syawitri, T. P., Yao, Y., Yao, J., & Chandra, B. (2019, March). Assessment of stress-blended eddy simulation model for accurate prediction of three-straight-bladed vertical axis wind turbine performance. Paper presented at 54th 3AF International Conference on Applied Aerodynamics, Paris, France

The performance of a three-straight-bladed vertical axis wind turbine at low tip speed ratio has been evaluated by detached eddy simulation (DES) with stress-blended eddy simulation (SBES) turbulence model. Two grid topologies around the blades, i.e....
