Abstract
A method for calculating three-dimensional, time-dependent, inviscid, subsonic flow is presented. Application is made to flow through the rotor of a small radial inflow turbine and comparison with conventional through-flow calculations and experimental results is made. The nature of the strong secondary flow in this rotor indicates the probable inadequacy of the two-dimensional calculations which is confirmed by the comparison.
