Axial-flow compressors: a strategy for aerodynamic design and analysis.

Author(s) : ASME, AUNGIER R. H.

Type of monograph: Book

Summary

This book provides a thorough description of an aerodynamic design and analytical system for axial-flow compressors. It describes the basic fluid dynamic and thermodynamic principles, empirical models and numerical methods used for the full range of procedures and analytical tools that an engineer needs for virtually any type of axial-flow compressor aerodynamic design or analytical activity. It reviews and evaluates several design strategies that have been recommended in the literature or which have been found to be effective. Extract from the table of contents: thermodynamics; fluid mechanics; axial-flow compressor blade profiles; two-dimensional blade-to-blade flow through cascades of blades; empirical performance models based on two-dimensional cascade tests; meridional through-flow analysis; end-wall boundary layer analysis; aerodynamic performance analysis; compressor stage aerodynamic design; multistage axial-flow compressor aerodynamic design; quasi-three-dimensional blade passage flow field analysis; other components and variations.
