SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING THE ANGULAR SETTING OF AN ANNULAR ROW OF STATOR VANES

A method determines the angular setting (β_2) of an annular row of stator vanes arranged downstream of a pusher propeller of a propulsion system with a longitudinal axis. The annular row of stator vanes receives an air flow having a velocity (V2) including a longitudinal component (Viz) and a tangen...

Zusammenfassung:A method determines the angular setting (β_2) of an annular row of stator vanes arranged downstream of a pusher propeller of a propulsion system with a longitudinal axis. The annular row of stator vanes receives an air flow having a velocity (V2) including a longitudinal component (Viz) and a tangential component (V_iθ) associated with the velocity of gyration generated by the pusher propeller. The method includes the steps of establishing a theoretical model of the pusher propeller using a power (P1) and a mechanical speed (N1) associated with said pusher propeller, and flight conditions that include a velocity of the airflow incident on the pusher propeller, the altitude of said propulsion system and ambient temperature. The method further includes the step of determining an angular setting (β_1) of the pusher propeller from the theoretical model.
