| Popis: | A comparison of the results of a computational simulation and an experimental measurement indicates a good agreement between them: the bowed blade lowers the energy loss coefficient of engine by 11% in the simulation and by 13% in the measurement. To further discuss the application conditions of bowed blade in compressor, with incidence equal to zero and other boundary conditions unchanged, a computational investigations on four series of linear stators with different aerofoil turning angles are achieved. It is found that the bowed blade has much positive effect in high airfoil turning angle cascade, for example, the optimal retrofit of 30° bow angle highly reduces the energy loss coefficient by 17.9%, when the aerofoil turning angle is 59.5°. But the optimal retrofit of 15° has only 0.7% reduction when the aerofoil turning angle is 39.5°, or even the compressor performance will get worse with the bow angle gradually increasing. Consequently, it is verified that the turning angle is one of the important factors to decide whether to apply the bowed blade into compressor at low Mach number. |
