    Abstract: The inlet boundary layer separates in front of the leading edge of the blade on the endwall and forms the pressure side leg of horseshoe vortex and the suction side one. The pressure side leg of the horseshoe vortex immediately moves toward to the suction side and form a stronger vortex, ”passage vortex”, in the cascade. These vortices mentioned ab... Show More
