TEST TURBINE INSTRUMENTATION FOR CAVITY PURGE INVESTIGATIONS

• The upstream wheelspace of the KTH Test Turbine has been instrumented with the aim of investigating cavity flow phenomena, as well as cavity-main annulus interaction. Measurements include static pressure, unsteady pressure and temperature.The stage used is of high pressure steam turbine design. The trials include investigating the design point and also a high pressure, high speed operating point, assimilating gas turbine operation. At each point, varying amounts of purge flow are superposed and the influences on the measurements studied.Initial results show considerable dependence of both operating
