Extract

In many internal flow problems, the velocity profile of the flow in a duct is of major importance. A recent survey has shown that the study of the effect of different velocity profiles on the performance of various components has been hampered because no general means of generating profiles was available.

Livesey, Parker and Jones have described a baffle specially developed in connection with gas turbine combustion chamber work, with which velocity profiles can be generated, having Vmax/Vmean ratios of up to 1·42, for an inlet profile of Vmax/Vmean = 1.15.
