Deviation Angle / Turning Angle Prediction for Advanced Axial-Flow Compressor Blade Row Geometries.

Abstract

Axial-flow compressor design systems utilize experimentally-supported methods for estimation of fluid turning angles in individual blade rows. The three principal prediction methods now in use were developed during the period 1945 to 1960. There has been no substantial modernization of these procedures since 1960, while the methods have been widely applied to airfoil section profiles and in aerodynamic regions far outside the limits suggested by the original derivations and data correlations.
