The Turbomachinery Laboratory will further its global impact this month during the Turbomachinery Technical Conference & Exposition (Turbo Expo) in Olso, Norway.
The conference, presented by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) International Gas Turbine Institute, is set for June 11-15. Experts from around the world will come together to share the latest academic findings in turbine technology, research, development and application.
Turbo Lab faculty and students will present or host more than 50 technical papers and sessions, and Turbo Lab staff will represent the Lab in the expo, booth 518.
The majority of Turbo Lab papers submitted to the conference are accepted to journal. Papers undergo a stringent review process in order to be journal-ready. They must be interesting, original, innovative and of significant relevance to the gas turbine industry, according to ASME evaluation guidelines.
“It’s a big honor to get accepted to journal,” said Dr. Eric Petersen, Turbo Lab director. “This is common for the Turbo Lab. It speaks to the high-quality research, and the high-quality students and faculty behind the research.”
Two Turbo Lab faculty researchers and three students will be honored during the conference for papers presented at the 2017 Turbo Expo in Charlotte, North Carolina. Dr. Luis San Andres and Xueliang Lu will receive an ASME Best Paper Award from the Structures and Dynamics Committee for “Leakage, Drag Power and Rotordynamic Force Coefficients of an Air in Oil (Wet) Annular Seal.” Dr. Je-Chin Han, Chao-Cheng (Joe) Shiau and Andrew Chen will also receive an ASME Best Paper Award from the Heat Transfer Committee for their paper, “Film Cooling Effectiveness Comparison on Full-Scale Turbine Vane Endwalls Using PSP Technique.”
The Best Paper Award is given to papers that rank in the top one percent of all conference submissions. They are high-quality, original and contribute uniquely to the science of engineering.
