To verify the aerodynamic performance of such cascade, firstly, low-speed wind tunnel tests were conducted to validate the calculation results of commercial software CFX, and then numerical simulations were made for the aerodynamic performance of the cascade at different Mach numbers. The simulation results show that the large enthalpy drop stationary cascade designed by HTC can offer good aerodynamic performance while keeping its high-load characteristics in the change range of outlet Mach number as stated in this paper.展开更多
