Control and Modeling for stall and surge phenomenon in axial flow compressors have received great importance in recent times. In power generation plant and aerospace propulsion compression system are prone to the aerodynamic instabilities of stall and surge. In aero engine compressors higher pressure ratio has always been a growing stipulates which has over involved by diverse rotating stall an...

In this paper, a numerical investigation into spike-type rotating stall process is carried out considering transonic compressor rotor (the NASA Rotor 37). Through solution of the Unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) equations, evolution from an initially circumferentially-symmetric near-stall flow field to stable condition simulated without adding any artificial disturbance. At oper...

Stable operation of both axial and radial compressors is constrained by the occurence of aerodynamic flow instabilities: rotating stall and surge. Developments in the understanding of the physics behind these instabilities and ideas of how t o stabilize the compressor system, have opened the door t o a new era in the field of compressor control. This study gives an overview of the current state...

It is well known that flow instabilities called rotating stall and surge may occur in non-cavitating turbomachines at flow rates smaller than design. Rotating stall is a local instability at the turbomachinery which is basically not dependent on the hydraulic system in which the turbomachine is installed. The stalled region rotates faster than impeller. Surge is a system instability in a hydrau...
