Design of an Axial Transonic Rotor by Modified Spanwise Loading Distribution
Abstract:Improving the aerodynamic performance of the transonic fan in a turbofan engine can be beneficial for both the fuel consumption and maneuverability of an airplane. Deep insight into the supersonic aerodynamics is needed for the simultaneous improvement of all operating parameters of a transonic rotor, including the pressure ratio, efficiency, and surge margin. A design method was developed for an axial transonic rotor by using a combination of radial equilibrium theory, the free vortex method, and a distribute… Show more
