Abstract:
The present paper is companion to Large-scale unsteady flow structures in the leakage flow of a low-speed axial fan with rotating shroud, Canepa et al., 2019. Two-dimensional PIV has been used in order to investigate the leakage flow in a low-speed fan with rotating shroud at three operating conditions. The reported data are constituted by about 3000 instantaneous meridional velocity fields, which are statistically independent. Each velocity field contains 41 × 55 velocity values deployed on a rectangular grid. In order to allow taking ensemble averages of the data, each velocity field has been assigned to a 4-deg bin in the rotor reference. The data are particularly valuable, since no data of this kind and detail have been made available to the scientific community yet.
