A Revised Computer Program for Axial Compressor Design. Volume 2. Program Listing and Program Use Example

Abstract

A revised computer program for the design of axial compressors is presented. It comprises three principal sections, two alternative means of determining blade geometry and an aerodynamic computation for the flow through the compressor. One method of determining blade geometry uses various analytic meanlines for the blade sections, and leads to the aerodynamic analysis of the flow through specified blading. The other method consists of creating arbitrary blade sections to follow the flow directions previously determined in an aerodynamic design calculation. The aerodynamic design section incorporates a loss calculation routine that may be used to estimate the design point performance of the compressor. One, two, or all three sections may be used in any one run of the program. This second volume of two describing the program shows the FORTRAN program listing and an example of the use of the program.
