Abstract: An analytical model has been developed to predict the performance of axial compressors with an exit static pressure perturbation. The model uses a two-dimensional compressible semi-actuator disk ...

Abstract: The potential pressure field caused by stator/downstream strut interaction is investigated analytically and experimentally. It is shown that the small disturbance theory using an actuator disk ...

Abstract: A lifting surface theory is developed to predict the unsteady three-dimensional aerodynamic characteristics for a rotating subsonic annular cascade of swept blades. A discrete element method is ...

Abstract: A series of numerical and experimental studies have been conducted to understand the mechanism of loss generation in a high-speed compressor stator with inlet radial shear flow over the span. ...
