Abstract: Quasi three dimensional blade-to-blade solutions for stators and rotors of turbomachines are obtained using the Streamline Curvature Method (SLCM). The first-order velocity gradient equation of the ...

Abstract: The influence of the unsteady rotor response on the shape of stagnation pressure and axial velocity distortions passing through an axial flow rotor are investigated. Experimental data obtained ...

Abstract: A study of the effects of rotor-blade geometry, steady loading, and distortion wavelength on the distortion flow field upstream and downstream of an unstalled isolated rotor shows that the ...

Abstract: An approximate analysis is presented for determining the unsteady lift on airfoils in moving cascades, subject to disturbances in the inlet axial flow. The equations of motion are averaged ...

Abstract: An analysis is presented of the unsteady lift on a cascade of airfoils moving through a circumferential inlet flow distortion. The flow model is based on blades of finite chord, but small ...

Abstract: This paper is intended for the designer of rotating turbomachinery who is concerned with the fluctuating forces generated in a turbomachine. The analysis presented is a quasi-steady analysis and ...
