Cleveland, Ohio 44135 Abstract A two-equation k-ω turbulence model has been developed and applied to a quasi-three-dimensional viscous analysis code for blade-to-blade flows in turbomachinery. The code includes the effects of rotation, radius change, and variable stream sheet thickness. The flow equations are given and the explicit Runge-Kutta solution scheme is described. The k-ω model equations are also given and the upwind implicit approximate-factorization solution scheme is described. Three

Usage of engagement based approaches in the classroom can be increased with changes in attitudes of teachers, sufficient support from schools and changes in modes of assessment. i AKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the following people who have helped me in making this Masters Project interesting and a memorable one: Associate Professor Helmer
