Research abstract
For the past nine years, Virginia Tech has developed StreamVane™ technologies that accurately reproduce the swirl distribution of the distorted flows created by compact, offset diffusers, enabling realistic ground-based testing of fans, compressors and engines intended for use in highly integrated airframes. ScreenVanes™, the next generation of distortion generating technology, aim to not only reproduce the desired swirl distribution of distorted inlet flow but to match prescribed total pressure distributions as well.
