Thesis:
Improved Modeling of the Side Wall Region in the Aerodynamic Optimization of Axial Turbines

To achieve future emission targets, axial turbines in aircraft engines must become even more efficient. Losses in the side wall region contribute to about 1/3 of the total losses. Therefore, reducing these losses through a low-loss geometry design is essential for increasing aerodynamic efficiency. The geometric design of this region is typically done through aerodynamic optimization.

According to the current state of the art, certain simplifications are made in the optimization process; there is potential for improved modeling and better consideration of the real geometry and physical conditions.

In this thesis, possibilities for such improved modeling of the side wall region, such as through unsteady optimization or a better representation of the interaction between the side wall and airfoil, will be developed and verified through optimization of suitable test cases.
