In this paper, a numerical simulation and experimental measurements of compressible viscous fluid flow in simplified blade cascade are compared. The cascade consists of five flat plates three of which perform prescribed harmonic motion. The computed unsteady velocity field is compared with experimental measurements at selected points. Moreover, the power spectral density corresponding to the frequency of harmonic motion is computed for both the numerical and experimental data and compared. The numerical simulation was performed using the developed in-house CFD software based on the discontinuous Galerkin method, which offers high order of accuracy.
