Understanding and prediction of the dynamics of slender flexible cylinders in axial flow is of interest for the design and safe operation of heat exchangers and nuclear reactors, specifically that of heat exchanger tubes, nuclear fuel elements, control rods, and monitoring tubes. In such fluid-structure interaction problems, the fluid forces acting on the flexible structure play a vital role in defining its dynamics. Therefore, a precise calculation of the coefficients associated to these forces, such as the longitudinal and normal viscous force coefficients, and base drag coefficient in the equation of motion is imperative. The present work is aimed at (i) calculating these force coefficients for a cantilevered slender flexible cylinder, fitted with an ogival end-piece, in axial flow and (ii) conducting experiments on the same system. In the calculation of these force coefficients, the parameters of the experimental system are used, so that the theoretically predicted dynamics would be representative of the actual physical system. These calculated force coefficients are then incorporated in the linear and nonlinear equations of motion and the predicted dynamics are compared with those of the experiments. The comparison shows good agreement between the theoretical and experimental results.

The paper studies the behavior of multi-mode systems of the Moore-Greitzer model. Its main result is the existence of a parameterized nonlinear state feedback controller which stabilizes the system to the right of the peak of the compressor characteristic. In this process, a rotating stall envelope surface is discovered, and it is shown that the controller design achieves the tasks of preventing the closed-loop system from entering either rotating stall or surge, and making the closed-loop pressure rise coefficient be able to approach its maximum. Numerical simulations of the open-loop and closed-loop models are presented to illustrate the analysis and the results. [S0022-0434(00)00803-0]

The paper introduces the surge phenomenon of the axial-flow compressor. To ensure the blower running safely, we analyze the surge phenomenon and design a anti-surge control system by using the fuzzy control theory to control the position of the snorting valve. The result of simulation in Matlab proves that the fuzzy controller is feasible.

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 an engine surges can result in structural loads in excess of steady state levels. These loads can be quite complex due to inherent asymmetry in the surge event. The increasing requirements for lighter weight engine structures, coupled with the higher pressure ratio cycles required for minimizing fuel consumption, make the accurate prediction of these loads an important part of the engine design process. This paper is aimed toward explaining the fluid mechanics of the surge phenomenon and its impact on engine structures. It offers relatively simple models for estimating surge-induced loads on various engine components. The basis for these models is an empirical correlation of surge-induced inlet overpressure based on engine pressure ratio and bypass ratio. An approximate estimate of the post-surge axial pressure distribution can be derived from this correlation by assuming that surge initiation occurs in the rear of the compression system.
