Axial compressor blading
An axial compressor has at least one circumferential row of aerofoil members (30a, 30b, 30c) in which at least one of the two end walls (37) between adjacent blades is given a non-axisymmetric profile, defined by circumferentially-extending sinusoids at a number of axial positions (AA, BB, CC).

Zusammenfassung: | An axial compressor has at least one circumferential row of aerofoil members (30a, 30b, 30c) in which at least one of the two end walls (37) between adjacent blades is given a non-axisymmetric profile, defined by circumferentially-extending sinusoids at a number of axial positions (AA, BB, CC). Corresponding points on the successive sinusoids are joined by spline curves, so that the curvature of the end wall is smooth. This end-wall profiling modifies the boundary layer flow at the wall, reducing or eliminating the corner separation and reversed flow associated with known arrangements. |
