AB - ESDU 07004 introduces the subject of flow in applications where rotating machinery components induce flow rotation. There are many examples of rotating and swirling flow in engineering such as the flow between a stationary disc and a rotating disc, in a gas turbine engine or turbocharger, and the flow in an annulus with a rotating inner cylinder, between the armature and stator of an electric motor. In ESDU 07004, the phenomena involved in rotating flows are introduced and guidance on the techniques for modelling specific rotating flow applications involving discs, cylinders and cavities is provided. Emphasis within ESDU 07004 has been placed on presenting correlations based on analytical, experimental and the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models for parameters such as mass flow, boundary layer thickness, swirl speed, pressure distribution and moment used in parametric design studies and optimisation.
