Description:
The aerodynamic design parameters are presented along with the overall and blade element performance, of an axial-flow compressor rotor designed to study the effects of blade solidity on efficiency and stall margin. At design speed the peak efficiency was 0.853 and occured at an equivalent weight flow of 65.7lb/sec. The total pressure ratio was 1.68. Design efficiency, weight flow, pressure ratio, and temperature ratio were 0.822, 65.3, 1.65, and 1.187, respectively. Stall margin for design speed was 14 percent based on the weight flows and pressure ratios at peak efficiency and just prior to stall.
