Abstract
The three-dimensional turbulent ¯ows in the turbine cascade with and without endwall fences are nu-
merically investigated by solving the incompressible Navier±Stokes equations with a high-Reynolds
number k± turbulence closure model. The limiting streamline patterns and the static pressure contours at
the suction surface of the blade as well as on the cascade endwall are employed to visualize the eectiveness
of the endwall fence for the secondary ¯ow control. The analysis on the streamwise vorticity contour maps
along the cascade with the three-dimensional representation of their iso-surfaces reveals the complicated
structures of the vortical ¯ows in the turbine cascade with endwall fence, and also leads to an understanding
on the formation of a counter-rotating streamwise vortex over the fence. The mechanisms of controlling the
secondary ¯ow and the proper selection of an optimal fence height are also explained. Ó 2001 Elsevier

by Sieverding [1], and various experimental studies have also been conducted by Jabbari [2],
Langston [3], Yamamoto [4,5], Sharma [6], and Goldstein [7].
For control of the secondary ¯ow, Kawai [8±11], Chung [12], and Lee [13] have experi-
mentally investigated on a use of the boundary layer fence at the endwall to hinder the merger
of the horseshoe vortex with the passage vortex, and have measured the total pressure losses
and velocity distributions in the wake region. An optimal size and location of the boundary
layer fence were determined by observing the fact that a fence with 1/3 height of the inlet
boundary layer thickness posted in the middle between blades reduces the secondary ¯ow losses
by 20%.
In the present study, the incompressible Navier±Stokes equations are numerically solved with
a high Reynolds number k± turbulence closure model for investigating the three-dimensional
turbulent ¯ows of turbine cascade with and without the endwall fences. Our concerns lie on the
accurate numerical prediction of the secondary ¯ow in the cascade as well as on the under-
standing of its complex three-dimensional ¯ow structures. Main objectives are to investigate how
the boundary layer fence reduces the secondary ¯ow development in the cascade, and to un-
derstand why the fence with 1/3 height of the inlet boundary layer thickness is optimal for the
secondary ¯ow control. The limiting streamline patterns and the static pressure contours at the
suction surface of the blade and the endwall are employed to visualize the topology of the three-
dimensional secondary ¯ow structures in the turbine cascade with and without endwall fences.
The streamwise vorticity contours at the various stations in the passage are analyzed to un-
derstand how the pressure-side leg of the horseshoe vortex interacts with the endwall fence of
dierent heights and its eects on the development of the passage vortex near the suction-side
blade.

A spatial discretization on the governing equations is then made by following the cell-center
based ®nite-volume method with a non-staggered arrangement of the variables. A conservative
form of the momentum equations Eq. (2) is cast into a discrete form as

where, for example, dn i1=2;j;k i 1=2;j;k , and the right-hand side term R Qi;j;k repre-
sents the residual vector.
Here, a MUSCL approach [22] is used to apply the second-order upwind-dierencing scheme
to the convective ¯ux terms in Eq. (16). For example, a numerical ¯ux at the cell face in the
n-direction is determined by
E^i1=2 E^ Q

U i1=2 < 0:
The transported variables Q i1=2 at the cell face are determined by a linear extrapolation from
each upwind direction based on a sign of the contravariant material velocity at the cell face. The
contravariant material velocity and pressure at the cell face are, however, de®ned by a linear
interpolation between two neighboring cells. This procedure may lead to an odd±even decoupling
of the pressure ®eld and therefore a momentum linear interpolation technique [23] was applied
after solving Eq. (12). The convective terms in the other directions as well as in the k± turbulence
equations are upwind-dierenced in the same manner, while the terms related to the diusion
process are centrally dierenced.
For the time integration of the momentum equations, Sotiropoulos et al. [17,18] employed the
numerical techniques widely used in the time-marching solution methods for the compressible
Navier±Stokes equations [19] or in the arti®cial compressibility method [24] for the incompressible
Navier±Stokes equations [20,21]; for example, a multi-stage Runge±Kutta method with implicit
residual smoothing and local time stepping techniques. The computational eciency largely
478 Y.J. Moon, S.-R. Koh / Computers & Fluids 30 (2001) 473±490
obtained by the multi-stage Runge±Kutta method in most of the external aerodynamics calcu-
lations was, however, not fully achieved as expected to be, especially when calculating the internal
turbulent ¯ows of turbomachinery coupled with the k± turbulence equations. In this regard, a
forward Euler method is employed for the time advancement of the momentum equations Eq.
(16), and is subject to be further discussed on its convergence behavior in Section 2.3.
For the convergence acceleration to a steady state, the implicit residual smoothing and the local
time stepping are used in conjunction with the time-integrator. The original residual R Qi;j;k in
Eq. (16) is ®ltered at each iteration by solving a diusion-like equation,
1 e dnn 1 e dgg 1 e dff Ri;j;k Ri;j;k ; 19
where dnn , dgg , dff are the standard second-dierence operators. For a smoothing coecient ,
values between 0.5 and 1.5 are used in practice.
Also, a local time step Dti;j;k is determined by a harmonic average of the time steps in each
direction,

where k is a CFL number and b 1 u2 v2 w2 denotes an arti®cial speed of sound.
The locally de®ned time steps substantially accelerates the convergence rate not only by al-
lowing spatially dierent time advancements but also by the enhancement of the numerical sta-
bility. The latter is due to the fact that the pressure ®eld is updated by Eq. (14), in which the
potential function w and the locally de®ned time step Dti;j;k are both proportional to the mesh size,
yielding w=Dti;j;k stable. The extended numerical stability of using the implicit residual smoothing
and the local time stepping with the present segregated solution procedure will be further dis-
cussed with a demonstrated result in Section 2.3.
In the present study, the Poisson equation Eq. (13) is implicitly solved by an alternate direc-
tional implicit (ADI) method with a single sweep, and a Neumann type boundary condition is
used for w. The turbulence transport equations (5)±(11) are also solved by following the same
numerical procedures described in this section.
A turbine cascade in the experiment of Wang et al. [25] is considered for a validation study. The
blade pro®le and its coordinate system are illustrated in Fig. 2, where x and y indicate the axial
and pitch directions and z the spanwise direction. The blade de®nition is given in Ref. [25], and its
geometrical details are summarized in Table 1.

The incoming ¯ow is turbulent with a boundary layer thickness of 24 mm and a turbulent intensity
of 0.7%. A standard wall-function is used on the rigid walls when the k± turbulence equations are
solved. At the out¯ow plane, the streamwise gradients of all variables are set to zero with a velocity
correction for the global mass conservation. The mid-span plane is treated as a symmetric plane
and a periodic boundary condition is applied at the upstream and downstream side planes.

A typical convergence behavior of the present numerical method is shown in Fig. 4 for the
computation of a three-dimensional turbulent cascade ¯ow. Here, a CFL number of 1 was used
with the implicit residual smoothing and local time stepping techniques, and a six-order of the
magnitude in residual drops in 4000 iterations. It is interesting to note that a time step allowed by
the forward Euler method in the fully coupled formulations (discussed in Section 2.2) is usually
much smaller than the one used here. It seems that the numerical stability using the local time
stepping in the segregated solution procedure seems far less constricted, whereas, to that governed
by a fully coupled system of equations for the pressure and the velocities.
An iso-surface of the non-dimensional streamwise vorticity (Cxs =U 5) is shown in Fig. 5,
which represents well the three-dimensional nature of the turbine cascade ¯ow. This ®gure clearly
depicts a secondary ¯ow structure within the cascade, i.e. the merger of the pressure-side leg of a
horseshoe vortex generated upstream of the blade leading edge with a passage vortex developed
within a curved cascade blade. The ¯ow patterns and the size of the secondary ¯ow are also
distinctively identi®able in Fig. 9 from the limiting streamlines on the cascade endwall and the
suction surface of the blade.

Accuracy assessments of the present method are also made by comparing the computed so-
lutions with some experimental data available. First, the computed static pressure distributions at
the blade mid-span are compared with the data measured by Wang et al. [25]. Fig. 6 shows results
of the grid dependence test conducted with various grid systems. The solutions obtained by using
a two-dimensional approximation are also closely compared with measurement, but not quite
accurately as the three-dimensional ones. This discrepancy protrudes at the suction surface of the
cascade near the trailing edge, due to the eect of the secondary ¯ow development. The three-
dimensional grid of 95 40 40 points in axial, pitch, and spanwise directions yields the closest
solution to the experiment. Second, the total pressure loss contours at a cross-section near the
trailing edge are compared with experimental data measured by Lee [13]. In this experiment, the
same blade pro®le and ¯ow conditions as Wang et al.'s were used except that an aspect ratio of
the blade was modi®ed to 2.0. Fig. 7 shows a comparison between computation and experiment
for the two cases of turbine, with and without the endwall fences, and Fig. 7(b) corresponds to the
case of an the endwall fence (hf 1=3d). The computed results of total pressure loss contours
agree reasonably well with experiment, in terms of the size and location of the secondary ¯ow
developed near the suction surface of the blade.
Understandings on how the boundary layer fence interacts with the right-hand leg of the
horseshoe vortex and as a result reduces the secondary ¯ow development in the cascade are

pursued in the present numerical study. A fence of 5 mm thickness is mounted on the cascade
endwall to suppress the secondary ¯ow development by hindering the interaction of an upcoming
484 Y.J. Moon, S.-R. Koh / Computers & Fluids 30 (2001) 473±490
horseshoe vortex from the turbine leading edge with the passage vortex. The boundary layer fence
pro®le is same as the blade camberline, and three fences of 1/3, 2/3, and 3/3 heights of the inlet
boundary layer thickness are tested as in the experiments [8±13]. Fig. 8 shows an endwall fence of
the highest case (hf 3=3d) modeled on a computational grid, and hf denotes the fence height
and d the inlet boundary layer thickness. Same ¯ow conditions are also used as in the previous
calculations (described in Section 2.3), and computations are made for the blade with an aspect
ratio of 2.
The static pressure coecient contours and limiting streamlines presented in Fig. 9 reveal the
structures of the three-dimensional cascade ¯ows with and without endwall fences. From Fig. 9(a)
and (b), one can clearly recognize the size of the secondary ¯ow developed within the cascade for
each case. With an endwall fence the secondary ¯ow development near the suction surface is much
suppressed, and an optimal fence height for the secondary ¯ow control is clearly discernable from
these ®gures. From the limiting streamline patterns on the endwall shown in Fig. 9(c), one can see
the ¯ow topology near the endwall surface and understand how the ¯ow structure is altered by
inserting an endwall fence. A saddle point is clearly visible near the blade leading edge due to the
horseshoe vortex formation, and the right-hand leg of the horseshoe vortex leaning to the suction
side is blocked by the fence. It can also be noticed that a strong cross-¯ow from the pressure side
to the suction side near the cascade endwall is considerably reduced by the boundary layer fence,
and that, as the fence height increases, the cross-¯ow becomes stronger at the region between the
fence and the suction surface. With the fence of 1/3 height of the inlet boundary layer thickness,

the secondary ¯ow is least developed, which, in fact, agrees well with the experimental observa-
tions made by Kawai [8±11], Chung [12], and Lee [13].
One can also observe that, as the fence height increases, the blocking point of the divided
streamline moves downstream due to the blockage eect. It is known that the secondary ¯ow
development is mainly due to the merger of the horseshoe vortex with the passage vortex.
486 Y.J. Moon, S.-R. Koh / Computers & Fluids 30 (2001) 473±490
Therefore, it may be simply conjectured that a complete blocking of the horseshoe vortex will
reduce the secondary ¯ow development, since the merger of these two counter-clockwise rotating
vortexes is prohibited. On the contrary, the secondary ¯ow near the suction surface becomes
stronger, as the fence height increases. This opposite phenomenon may be understood from Fig.
10 with the non-dimensional streamwise vorticity maps at the stations of 60%, 70%, 80%, and 90%
of the axial chord length along the cascade. Fig. 10(a) clearly shows the formation of a strongly
merged streamwise vortex developed in the downstream of the cascade with no endwall fence. In
fact, it is important to notice that the size of the merged vortex at the 60% location of the axial
chord length is in a good proximity to the inlet boundary layer thickness of 24 mm. Therefore, it is
useful to use the inlet boundary layer thickness as a characteristic length scale, and as a result the
fence height relative to this thickness plays an important role in control of the streamwise vortex
formation. From Figs. 10(b)±(d), it may be understood why the fence with 1/3 height of the inlet
boundary layer thickness generates the least streamwise vorticity, comparing with the other two
cases. Since the size of the merged vortex is in the order of an inlet boundary layer thickness, the
horseshoe vortex is almost blocked in the region between the pressure side and the fence for
hf 3=3d, and therefore, a stand-alone passage vortex revives at the suction side. This is called a
``half-pitch eect''. On the other hand, if the fence height is lower than the boundary layer
thickness, the counter-clockwise rotating (in solid lines) horseshoe vortex tops over the fence and
produces a clockwise rotating streamwise vortex (in broken lines) at the region between the fence
and the suction surface. The rotational direction of this newly generated streamwise vortex is, in
fact, opposite to that of the passage vortex, and therefore it plays an important role in reducing
the development of the secondary ¯ow near the suction surface of the blade. As one can see from
Fig. 10(b), the fence with 1/3 height of the inlet boundary layer thickness most eectively generates
the counter-rotating streamwise vortex, and therefore the development of the passage vortex near
the suction surface is most suppressed. The interaction mechanisms of the horseshoe vortex
with the boundary layer fence and the formation of a counter-rotating streamwise vortex in the
cascade are also three-dimensionally visualized in Fig. 11 by the iso-surfaces of the non-dimen-
sional streamwise vorticity of 15 (counter-clockwise rotating horseshoe and passage vortexes
in dark color) and 15 (clockwise rotating streamwise vortex in light color). The large scale
structure of the merged passage vortex rotating in the positive direction is clearly shown in
Fig. 11(a) for the cascade with no endwall fence, whereas, for the case of hf 1=3d shown in
Fig. 11(b), one can see the right-hand leg of the horseshoe vortex continuously scraping the fence
edge from the upstream and generating a counter-rotating streamwise vortex at the region be-
tween the fence and the suction surface. Fig. 11(d) shows that, for the case with the highest fence,
the horseshoe vortex is almost completely blocked by the fence and there is no formation of a
counter-rotating streamwise vortex in the cascade. The eectiveness of reducing the passage
vortex near the suction surface (shown as a dark iso-surface of the positive streamwise vorticity) is
clearly noticeable among the cases from Fig. 11(a)±(d).

k± turbulence closure model. The numerical accuracy of the present method was validated by
comparing the static pressure distributions at the mid-span of the cascade and the total pressure
loss contours at a cross-section near the trailing edge with experimentally measured data, and also
by the fact that the computed results strongly support the experimental observations that an
optimal fence height for the least secondary ¯ow is one-third of the inlet boundary layer thickness.
The three-dimensional nature of the secondary ¯ow in the turbine cascade is also understood by
the visualizations of the limiting streamline patterns and the static pressure contours at the suction
surface of the blade as well as on the cascade endwall. Analysis on the non-dimensional
streamwise vorticity contour maps along the cascade with the three-dimensional representation of
