This paper presents results of a study, supported by Air Force Contract F33615-79-C2070 under the Low Cost High Temperature Rotor Blade Program, conducted to evaluate the predictive capabilities of the State-of-the-Art codes used in the turbine design process against aerodynamic and heat transfer data obtained at Arvin/Calspan for the Garrett Low Aspect Ratio turbine (LART). The aerodynamics of the LART was fairly well simulated by both a multistage Euler code and a 3-D Navier Stokes code. The external heat load on the vane airfoil surfaces was underestimated by both a 2-D and a 3-D boundary layer code. The heat loads in the endwall regions were well predicted by the 3-D boundary layer code. The heat load on the rotor airfoil mid-span region was well predicted by the 2-D boundary layer code. No physical mechanism for higher than predicted heat load on the vane air-foil mid-span region has been identified.
