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.

In this study, a new inverse design method called Elastic Surface Algorithm (ESA) is developed and enhanced for axial-flow compressor blade design in subsonic and transonic flow regimes with separation. ESA is a physically based iterative inverse design method that uses a 2D flow analysis code to estimate the pressure distribution on the solid structure, i.e. airfoil, and a 2D solid beam finite element code to calculate the deflections due to the difference between the calculated and target pressure distributions. In order to enhance the ESA, the wall shear stress distribution, besides pressure distribution, is applied to deflect the shape of the airfoil. The enhanced method is validated through the inverse design of the rotor blade of the first stage of an axial-flow compressor in transonic viscous flow regime. In addition, some design examples are presented to prove the effectiveness and robustness of the method. The results of this study show that the enhanced Elastic Surface Algorithm is an effective inverse design method in flow regimes with separation and normal shock.

This paper applies a new analytical/empirical method to formulate the off-design deviation angle correlation of axial flow compressor blade elements. An implicit function of deviation angle is used to map off-design deviation curves into linear correlations (minimum linear correlation coefficient R = 0.959 in this paper). Solution of the coefficients in the correlation is given through the study of classical theories and statistical analysis of the experimental data. The off-design deviation angle can be calculated numerically. The approach requires only knowledge of the blade element geometry. The comparison among 2 classical correlations and the new correlation proposed in this paper shows the new correlation has minimum error over the entire range of incidence angle while classical correlations show high reliability only in a limited range. Experimental data in this paper is collected from NASA’s open technical reports. Rotors and stators are studied together. Considering there is significant deviation angle variation along spanwise direction, only data at 50% span is studied, if possible. The error among experimental data, statistical regressions of the experimental data, and numerical results based on the new correlation is discussed. It has to be noted that the influence of the flow condition other than incidence angle is only being discussed but with less break through.

The development of a computational tool (MP-LOS) for the aerodynamic loss modeling and prediction for axial-flow compressor blade sections is presented in this paper. A state-of-the-art quasi 3-D flow solver, MISES, has been used for the flow analysis on existing airfoil geometries in many working conditions. Different values of inlet flow angle, inlet Mach number, AVDR, Reynolds number and solidity have been chosen to investigate a possible working range. The target is a loss prediction formulation that will be introduced into throughflow or axisymmetric Navier-Stokes codes for the performance prediction of multistage axial flow compressors. The loss coefficient has been correlated to the flow parameters that have shown an influence on the profile loss for the blades under study. The proposed correlation, using the described computational approach, can be extended to any profile family with the aid of any code for the parametric design of blade profiles.

Probe Measurements

The results from the area traverse measurements of the unsteady total temperature using a high response aspirating probe downstream of the second stator of a three stage axial flow compressor are presented. The measurements were conducted at the peak efficiency operating point. The unsteady total temperature data is resolved into deterministic and unresolved components. Hub and casing regions have high levels of unsteadiness and consequently high levels of mixing. These regions have significant levels of shaft resolved and unresolved unsteadiness. Comparisons are made between the total temperature and the total pressure data to examine the rotor 2 wake characteristics and the temporal variation of the stator exit flow. Isentropic efficiency calculations at the midpitch location show that there is about a 4% change in the algebraically averaged efficiency across the blades of the second rotor and if all the rotor 2 blades were behaving as a “best” blade, the improvement in efficiency would be about 1.3%. An attempt is made to create a composite flow field picture by correlating the unsteady velocity data with temperature and pressure data.
