Use of Potential Flow State-Space Inflow Modeling For Mass Source Rotors

Abstract

This research deals with the development of a finite-state inflow theory that will be able to predict all three components of flow both on and off of the rotor disk. The theory will be of a velocity potential expanded in hierarchical degrees of freedom.
