Rotating Stall and Surge

Abstract: Safe off-design operation of compressors is limited to the region in which the flow is stable. Flow instabilities can be of two types, rotating stall and surge. The first of these subjects the blading to high oscillating stresses while the second may also have a disastrous effect on the whole system of which the compressor is a component. In this paper, the properties of these two types of instability are discussed and some simple criteria for determining system stability are presented.

“…The difference between the configurations is based on two parameters: firstly, the implementation or non-implementation of a storage volume (plenum) in the system, and secondly, the capacity of the storage volume, when considering the former case. Figure 65 and Figure 66 Greitzer [50] and Stening [51] approach, the presence of a storage volume would lead to worsen the compressor stability limit. Figure 65 shows the experimental results of the cases previously described for the 40000rpm operating line.…”

“…Stening [51] proposed a simplified model based on Greitzer's approximation [49,50] that describes flow instability inception of the most complex compression system presented in Figure 63(c) by means of a single second-order differential equation that accounts for the perturbations on each element of the compression system. In order to do so, Stening compares the compressor, duct, plenum and throttle forming the compression system to a mass-spring damper system, as sketched in Figure 64.…”
