This paper describes a method for the prediction of the transonic flow field in a high solidity, high turning cascade, suitable for use as stator of a shock-in-rotor supersonic compressor stage. Effects of shock boundary layer interaction is taken into account by empirical correlation, valid for blade aspect ratios below unity. Use of partial slots for reduction of the secondary flows is briefly discussed and a correlation on slot efficiency is presented.
