Three-dimensionality takes into account large pressure gradients in every direction, design/curvature of
blades, shock waves, heat transfer, cavitation, and viscous effects, which generate secondary flow,
vortices, tip leakage vortices, and other effects that interrupt smooth flow and cause loss of efficiency.
Viscous effects in turbomachinery block flow by the formation of viscous layers around blade profiles,
which affects pressure rise and fall and reduces the effective area of a flow field. Interaction between
these effects increases rotor instability and decreases the efficiency of turbomachinery.
In calculating three-dimensional losses, every element affecting a flow path is taken into account—such
as axial spacing between vane and blade rows, end-wall curvature, radial distribution of pressure
gradient, hup/tip ratio, dihedral, lean, tip clearance, flare, aspect ratio, skew, sweep, platform cooling
holes, surface roughness, and off-take bleeds. Associated with blade profiles are parameters such as
camber distribution, stagger angle, blade spacing, blade camber, chord, surface roughness, leading- and
trailing-edge radii, and maximum thickness.
Two-dimensional losses are easily evaluated using Navier-Stokes equations, but three-dimensional
losses are difficult to evaluate; so, correlation is used, which is difficult with so many parameters. So,
correlation based on geometric similarity has been developed in many industries, in the form of charts,
graphs, data statistics, and performance data.

Secondary flow
The main points to consider are:
where ζs = average secondary flow loss coefficient; α2, αm = flow angles; δ1/C = inlet boundary
layer; and C,S,h = blade geometry.
ζ = ζp + ζew
ζ = ζp[ 1 + ( 1 + ( 4ε / ( ρ2V2/ρ1V1 )1/2 ) ) ( S cos α2 - tTE )/h ]

where η=efficiency in absence of endwall boundary layer, where h refers to the hub and t refers to
the tip. The values of Fθ and δ* are derived from the graph or chart.
QL = 2 ( ( Pp - Ps ) / ρ )1/2
The leakage flow sheet due to velocity induced by the vortex is given in Rains, 1954:
