Abstract

Prediction method..... To design an aerodynamically efficient blade the distribution of entropy generation on the blade surface should be known. With only a knowledge of the integrated loss, makes the task of improving the efficiency of a blade extremely difficult. This paper presents a method to predict the entropy generation rate in steady, two-dimensional, incompressible, adiabatic boundary layer flows which gives both the distribution and magnitude of the entropy generation rate.
