Notes:
A numerical approximation is taken to the solution of the complex flows existing in gas turbine engines with transonic blading. The quasi-3D approach decouples the problem into through-flow and blade-to-blade solutions. An industrially practical finite element through-flow solution is developed and for blade-to-blade solutions a transonic finite areas method is utilized. The finite element code developed is capable of operating in an analysis or a design mode. In both modes a dynamic relaxation factor is employed and considerable reduction in solution time can be achieved. Comparisons to streamline curvature methods are carried out for simple analytical and complex industrial problems.
