Investigation on the Stall Inception Circumferential Position and Stall Process Behavior in a Centrifugal Compressor With Volute

Volume 2B: Turbomachinery, 2018
The present paper numerically and experimentally investigates the stall inception mechanisms in a centrifugal compressor with volute. Current studies about stall inception pay more attention on the axial compressors than the centrifugal compressors; especially, the circumferential position of stall inception onset and the stall process in the ...

Experimental Investigation on the Stall Inception of a Counter-Rotating Compressor

Volume 8: Turbomachinery, Parts A, B, and C, 2012
For investigating the flow phenomena in the stall process of a counter-rotating compressor (CRC), static and dynamic experiment have been carried out on a low speed counter-rotating compressor. Seven high response pressure sensors were mounted at the leading edge of rotor 1(R1) and rotor 2(R2) as well as at the outlet of R2 blade tip and root.

Effect of RANS Method on Stall Inception Eigenvalue Approach

Volume 2B: Turbomachinery, 2017
The effect of mesh, turbulence model and discretization scheme in Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes method (RANS) on a stall inception eigenvalue approach is investigated in a transonic compressor rotor. The most influencing flow structures on the result of eigenvalue approach are also identified.

Effects of Fan Speed on Rotating Stall Inception and Recovery

Volume 7: Turbomachinery, Parts A, B, and C, 2010
An implicit, time-accurate 3D compressible RANS solver is used to simulate rotating stall inception and recovery, the so-called rotating stall hysteresis, in a modern fan geometry. In the first instance, rotating stall was simulated for 70%, 80% and 90% fan speeds using a whole-annulus fan model with a variable-area nozzle downstream.

An Investigation of Stall Inception in Centrifugal Compressor Vaned Diffuser1

Journal of Turbomachinery, 2012
In compression systems, the stable operating range is limited by rotating stall and/or surge. Two distinct types of stall precursors can be observed prior to full scale instability: the development of long-wavelength modal waves or a short-wavelength, three-dimensional flow breakdown (so-called “spike” stall inception).

Spike-Type Compressor Stall Inception, Detection, and Control

Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2010
An aerodynamic instability known as stall occurs in axial compressors as the mass flow rate is reduced and the blade loading reaches its limit. At this limiting condition, an easily recognizable flow breakdown process, known as spike-type stall inception, is observed in most modern compressors.

Correlation and Prediction of Rotating Stall Inception by Divergence Method

Journal of Fluids Engineering, 1985
An empirical correlation of rotating stall inception points of elementary compressors (isolated rotors, stages without prerotation, complete single stages, and multi-stage machines with repeating stages), modeled as equivalent diffusers, is presented. From it, two inception criteria for self-induced rotating stall are derived. Compressor blade rows are

A Numerical Study on Rotating Stall Inception in an Axial Compressor

2008
A series of numerical study was conducted to analyze stall inception process and to find the mechanism of rotating stall in a subsonic axial compressor. The compressor used in this study showed different flow behaviors depending on the inlet boundary layer thickness at the near stall condition.

Computational Study of Rotating-Stall Inception in Axial Compressors

Journal of Propulsion and Power, 1997
Rotating-stall inception in axial-e ow compressors has been studied computationally using a quasi-threedimensional time-marching Navier ‐ Stokes method with a mixing-length turbulence model. Of particular interest was the effect of external circumferential disturbances corresponding to inlet stagnation pressure distortions and rotor/stator blade ...

Prediction of stall inception in an axial flow compressor

1991
The small perturbation stability analysis of Nenni and Ludwig [1] to predict stall inception of a high hub-to-tip ratio blade row was extended by establishing the blade row compatibility equations in the relative frame of reference and applying them to a diffusing control volume.
