Effect of Various Blade Modifications on Performance of A16-Stage Axial-Flow Compressor. V - Effect on Over-All Performance Characteristics of a 20-Percent Reduction in Solidity of the Fourteenth Through Sixteenth Stage Rotors

The performance of a 16-stage axial-flow compressor, in which the mean-radius solidity was reduced from 1.28 to 1.02 in the fourteenth through sixteenth stage rotors was determined. The performance of this modification was compared with that of the compressor with original rotors. The reduced solidi...

Zusammenfassung:The performance of a 16-stage axial-flow compressor, in which the mean-radius solidity was reduced from 1.28 to 1.02 in the fourteenth through sixteenth stage rotors was determined. The performance of this modification was compared with that of the compressor with original rotors. The reduced solidity resulted in slightly improved performance.
