Initial Investigations into the Failure Modes of a Swirl Distortion Generator Using Computational Methods
… can impose undesired flow conditions, such as swirl and pressure distortions, at the inlet of a jet engine. Therefore, efficient research and testing capabilities are essential to advance the development of these integrated systems. The StreamVane swirl distortion generator was developed by …

Experimental Investigation of Fan Rotor Response to Inlet Swirl Distortion
… ingesting aircraft architectures contain complex distortions that affect the engine operability, durability, efficiency, and performance. One component of these complex distortion profiles is off-axial secondary flow, commonly referred to as swirl. As a means to investigate the interactions of …

Methodology Development and Investigation of Turbofan Engine Response to Simultaneous Inlet Total Pressure and Swirl Distortion
… in modern conceptual aircraft, a novel inlet distortion generator (ScreenVaneTM) was invented. The device simultaneously reproduces combined inlet total pressure and swirl distortion elements in a tailored profile intended to match a defined turbofan engine inlet distortion profile. The device …

A Comprehensive Three-Dimensional Analysis of the Wake Dynamics in Complex Turning Vanes
… The vane packs were designed by the StreamVane swirl distortion generator technology, a design system that can efficiently reproduce swirl distortion for compressor rig and full turbofan engine testing. StreamVanes consist of an array of turning vanes that commonly contain variations in turning …
