Inadequate kinetic energy loss

Hi to all.
I’m trying to estimate kinetic energy loss for turbine rotor wheel (I have one half of stage only). Calculation residuals proved to be good as well as monitor points, so I plot a chart for kinetic energy loss spanwise distribution. I used two formulas: 1. dzita = (prel*in-prel*out)/(prel*in-p out) 2.dzita = (prel*in-prel*out)/(prel*out-p out), where prel* is total pressure in rel frame. Actually I don’t know which one is correct exactly. But there's considerable part in the chart that yields negative loss! What's wrong? I attached domain picture, expected chart and calculated one (via both formulas). |
