• Profile/annulus losses • Tip leakage losses
– BL drag & wake mixing » Tip vortex mixing
• Main objective:
– Characterize losses
– Measure exit flow angle
• Based on simplified 2D, steady flow
• Both design and off-design conditions are tested

• Slip factor
» Ideally: 𝑐𝜃2 = 𝑈2 , but in reality: 𝑐𝜃2 < 𝑈2 due to less than perfect
guidance received because of finite no. of vanes
» Define 𝜎𝑠 = 𝑐𝜃2 /𝑈2 as slip factor:

• Assumptions:
» Neglect body (𝑓 ) and viscous forces (𝜏𝑖𝑗 )
» Small perturbations : 𝜌 = 𝜌0 + 𝜌′, 𝑝 = 𝑝0 + 𝑝′, etc.
» Stagnant fluid (𝑣0 = 0) with uniform properties (𝜌0 = const) at observer
• Assumptions:
» DO NOT neglect body (𝑓 ) and viscous forces (𝜏𝑖𝑗 )

• The first term on the RHS (volume integral) is the Lighthill tensor.
• Surface integrals are associated with moving source assumption.
So, in absence of moving sources, FW-H reduces to Lighthill eqn
