The measurements of the total pressure loss coefficient are made at the cascade outlets by using a five-hole probe at exit Mach numbers of 0.10, 0.14 and 0.19. At each exit Mach number, experiments are performed at the tip clearance heights of 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0%, 2.5% and 3.0% of the blade height. The effects of the non-uniform tip clearance height of each blade in the pitchwise direction are also studied. The results show that at a given tip clearance height, generally, total pressure loss rises with exit Mach numbers proportionally. At a fixed exit Mach number, the total pressure loss augments nearly proportionally as the tip clearance height increases. The increased tip clearance heights in the tip regions of two adjacent blades are to be blame for the larger clearance loss of the center blade. Compared to the effects of the tip clearance height, the effects of the exit Mach number and the pitchwise variation of the tip clearance height on the cascade total pressure loss are so less significant to be omitted.展开更多

Moreover, racial variation for Asian nose rhinoplasty could even demand sophistication of tip and columella strut graft infrastructure enhancement. Various autogenous graft options such as 6th costal cartilage, septal cartilage and conchal cartilage are very commonly considered whilst the 10th costal cartilage is scarcely reported. Objective and Method: The purpose of this manuscript is to illustrate the detailed operative steps to harvest the 10th costal cartilage for infrastructural grafting at NTC subunits by a case illustration. The pros and cons of different cartilage options will be discussed, particularly its application in cleft nose rhinoplasty in Chinese patient. We have adopted the 10th rib as the key option for NTC reconstruction in 11 cases of Chinese cleft secondary rhinoplasty since 2019 and have achieved good and stable results without complications. Conclusion: The 10th costal cartilage is one of the best options in Nasal Tip Columella subunits reconstruction, particularly in complex cleft nose or failure revision aesthetic rhinoplasty cases, due to its safety of harvesting, and the sufficient quality and quantity of grafting materials it provides for simultaneous adjunctive augmentation purpose.展开更多
