Effect of variable-position inlet guide vanes and interstage bleed on compressor performance of a high-pressure-ratio turbojet engine

Increased guide-vane turning resulted in poorer overall performance, the decrease being greatest at the highest rotor speed. Rotating stall originating at the tips of the first stage correlated with the knee in the stall-limit line. Increasing guide-vane turning shifted the first-stage stall-free performance and the knee in the stall-limit line to a lower engine speed. Opening the interstage bleed reduced the minimum rotor speed at which stall-free performance of the first stage was possible and tended to eliminate the knee in the stall-limit line.

Performance of a Blunt-lip Side Inlet with Ramp Bleed, Bypass, and a Long Constant-area Duct Ahead of the Engine : Mach Numbers 0.66 and 1.5 to 2.1

Unsteady shock-induced separation of the ramp boundary layer was reduced and stabilized more effectively by external perforations than by external or internal slots. At Mach 2.0 peak total-pressure recovery was increased from 0.802 to 0.89 and stable mass-flow range was increased 185 percent over that for the solid ramp. Peak pressure recovery occurred just before instability. The 7 and one-third-diameter duct ahead of the engine reduced large total-pressure distortions but was not as successful for small distortions as obtained with throat bleed. By removing boundary-layer air the bypass nearly recovered the total-pressure loss due to the long duct.

Experimental Investigation of Crossing Shock Wave-Turbulent Boundary Layer-Bleed Interaction

Results of an experimental investigation of a symmetric crossing shock wave/turbulent boundary layer/bleed interaction are presented for a freestream unit Reynolds number of 1.68 x 10(exp 7)/m, a Mach number of 2.81, and deflection angles of 8 degrees. The data obtained in this study are bleed mass flow rate using a trace gas technique, qualitative information in the form of oil flow visualization, flow field Pitot pressures, and static pressure measurements using pressure sensitive paint. The main objective of this test is two-fold. First, this study is conducted to explore boundary layer control through mass flow removal near a large region of separated flow caused by the interaction of a double fin-induced shock wave and an incoming turbulent boundary layer. Also, a comprehensive data set is needed for computational fluid dynamics code validation.
