Blade tip winglet has been proved to be an effective method to control the tip leakage flow in compressor, while the physical mechanisms of blade tip winglet have been poorly understood. A numerical study for a highly loaded transonic compressor rotor has been conducted to understand the effect of varying the location of blade tip wing]et on the performance of the rotor. Two kinds of tip winglet were designed and investigated. The effects of blade tip winglet on the compressor over- all performance, stability and tip flow structure were presented and discussed, It is found that the interaction of the tip winglet with the flow in the tip region is different when the winglet is located at suction-side or pressure-side of the blade tip. Results indicate that the suction-side winglet （SW） is ineffective to improve the performance of compressor rotor. In addition, a significant stall range extension equivalent to 33.74% with a very small penalty in efficiency can be obtained by the pressure-side winglet （PW）. An attempt has been made to explain the fundamental mechanisms of blade tip winglet in detail.展开更多

The first part of the present study is concerning the sweep effect with straight leading edge.In this case fixing the hub section the swept blade is formed by tilting the leading edge with whole blade forwards and backwards axially.The second part is to use an optimization strategy with simple gradient-based optimum-searching method and multi-section blade parameterization technique to search and generate an optimal swept rotor with curved arbitrary leading edge.Its adiabatic efficiency is a little bit greater than that of the reference un-swept rotor.展开更多

The results show that, compared to the compressor with unurved rotors, the compressor under scrutiny acquires remarkable increases in efficiency with significantly reduced amplitudes of the time-dependent fluctuation. The amplitude of the pressure fluctuation around the stator leading edge decreases at both endwalls, but increases at the mid-span in the curved rotors. The pressure fluctuation near the stator leading edge, therefore, becomes more uniform in the radial direction of this compressor. Except for the leading edge area, the pressure fluctuatinn amplitude declines remarkably in the tip region of stator surface downstream of the curved rotor, but hardly changes in the middle and at the hub.展开更多

The result shows that the variation will change the relative position ofupstream rotor wake to the downstream rotor as well as the periodic and turbulent velocityfluctuations on the airfoils. When the upstream rotor wake impinges upon the leading edge of thedownstream rotor, the corresponding stage efficiency will be higher; when the upstream wake istransferred into the mid-passage of the downstream rotor, the corresponding stage efficiency will belower. The proper configuration of the relative position of rotors will cause obvious reduction inthe unsteady aerodynamic effect on the second rotor airfoils and improve the aerodynamic performanceof blades.展开更多

The performances of the straight stator stages are investigated and compared to those of the bowed stator stages. The results show that using bowed stator stages could alleviate the flow separation at both upper and low corners of the suction surface and the endwalls, and decrease the losses along the flow passage as well as the outlet flow angle. As the rotor/stator axial gap decreases, although the diffusion capacity of the compressor increases obviously, the outlet flow field in the straight stator stages deteriorates quickly. By contrast, little changes occur in the bowed stator stages, indicating that as the rotor/stator axial gap decreases, improved performance is achieved in the bowed stator stages.展开更多

Two models with close and far axial gap between rotor and stator rows are studied in the simulation. Particular attention is attached to the analysis of mechanisms involved in driving rotor wake oscillation, rotor wake skewing and flow angle fluctuation at rotor exit. The results show that smaller axial gap is favorable to enhance the interaction in the region between two adjacent rows, and the fluctuation of the static pressure difference between two sides of rotor wake is improved by potential field from down stator, which is the driving force for rotor wake oscillation. The interaction between rotor and stator is weakened by increasing axial distance, rotor wake shifts to suction side of rotor blade with 5%-10% of rotor pitch, the absolute value of flow angle at rotor exit is less than that in the case of close interspace for every time step, and the fluctuation amplitude is also decreased.展开更多

Analysis of its thermodynamic process indicates that thebuilt-in process is incomplete. The thermodynamic process of the compressor of composite gear teethcan be considered as five processes; the suction process, the isometric process, the compressionprocess, the pressure-balance process at high pressure and low pressure gas, and discharge process.Here, it is necessary to explain further the pressure-balance process. The pressure-balance processis isometric process. It is found that the isometric process of gas in chamber A whose capacity is83 percent of total work volume can be eliminated basically through extending the discharge port toconnect early the discharge port with the chamber B. By the above-mentioned method, the loss ofenergy will be reduced.展开更多
