Part I. Analysis of a multi-stage axial compressor with high reaction blading. Part II. A design study of a multi-stage axial compressor with blading of high aspect ratio
PART I: An analysis of a multi-stage axial compressor with high reaction blading is carried out. The usual methods of linearizing the equations for flow through the compressor fail for this type of blading. A numerical-solution of the non-linear equations is worked through for off-design operat...
