Temperature distortion
Abstract
Mathematical models for compressors subject to temperature distorted inflow are presented along with supporting experimental evidence. A time lag term is added to the parallel compressor hypothesis to predict the stability line for a compressor and the characteristics in distorted flow. In addition, the detailed flow around the airfoils is examined to create a model which accounts for the effects of distortion on the airfoils as well as the effects of the airfoils on distortion.
