Computational Analysis of Axial Compressor Stages Characteristics
Authors: , , , , , , ,
Abstract: Published data on flat grid purges allow to evaluate the efficiency of blade devices with different kinematic scheme of stages and design parameters. The corresponding computer program ODOS-GP04 and examples of numerical analysis of the efficiency of flat grids and spatial blade devices of axial stages with different combinations of design parameters was provided. Further development of the ODOS-GP04 program is described below, which makes it possible to perform an estimated calculation of the gas-dynamic characteristics of the stages designed using this program. Analysis of the calculated characteristics of a number of typical stages allows to draw a conclusion about the influence of the main design parameters. This article is primarily addressed to people who are developing their knowledge of the gas dynamics of axial compressors. Some results of calculations do not correspond to the published experimental data. The authors expect that this may attract the attention of specialists working in the field of gas dynamics of axial compressors.
