Active Control of Aeroelasticity and Internal Flows in Turbomachinery

Abstract

This report describes work carried out at the Gas Turbine Laboratory at MIT during the period 1/1/96 - 9/30/99, in the area of active control of turbomachinery. Within the overall project, three main research areas were pursued. These are, in brief: (1) Active control of rotating stall with inlet distortion; (2) Injectors as actuators for rotating stall control; and (3) Active stabilization of surge in an aeroengine; and (4) Development of an active rotor for aeroelasticity diagnostics, system identification, and control.
