Swirling Flow Field inside a Hollow Turbine Shaft for an Internal Cooling Air System TADAHARU KISHIBEa’* and SHOJIRO KAJIb aGas Turbine RD Center, Hitachi Ltd., Horiguchi 832-2, Hitachinaka-shi, Ibaraki-ken 312, Japan, bDepartment ofAeronautics and Astronautics, University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan (Received22 August 1997, In final form 27 August 1998) The swirling flow field in an internal cooling air system in which the fluid passes through an inducer, a hollow turbine shaft, and a cavity between two disks (referredto as a wheel space) is solved using computational fluid dynamics and the pressure fluctuations on the hollow shaft wall surface are measured. The three-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations are adopted and discretized by an implicit TVD scheme. The region of the cooling air system is divided into two computational domains: one from the inducer to the hollow shaft, and the other from the hollow shaft to th
