Abstract
The article deals with the issue of experimental research of the so-called design overloaded stage. A new experimental device enabling measurements on two-stage axial turbine is advantageously used in this research task. The experimental setup is designed so that a preparatory stage is included in front of the examined stage. The stage design introduces some aerodynamic overload already in the flow path design phase. This research program is focused primarily on the effect of leakage flows and their mixing with the mainstream. This paper describes the verification measurements on a newly introduced two-stage arrangement and reveals the first data obtained.
