Abstract: A nonlinear compressible flow model has been developed for the prediction of compressor performance and stability with a circumferential flow distortion. This model uses multiple parallel compressor ...

Abstract: The axial flow compression system of a modern gas turbine engine normally delivers a large quantity of airflow at relatively high velocity. The sudden stoppage (and reversal) of this flow when ...

Abstract: The coupling between an axial compressor in an inlet distortion and downstream compression system components is studied analytically and experimentally. The analysis is based on a nonlinear ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation has been carried out on the influence of grooved casing treatment on the stall margin of a compressor rotor. Tests were conducted with two rotor builds having ...
