Experimental studies are carried out at a low speed axial compressor with five different rotor/stator gaps. Analysis of the effect of axial spacing of two successive blade rows on the measured mean flow coefficient at stall inception and on the flow range of compressor under multi-cell rotating stall operating conditions proves that the stator can suppress the flow disturbance in the compressor and strengthen the stability of the compressor. Experimental data show that the stall flow coefficient decreases by reducing the axial spacing of successive blade rows. Moreover, by reducing the axial spacing, the stall pattern transition pace from multi-cell stall to single-cell stall can be shifted. And the compressor directly slips into single-cell stall at 21.0% CR axial spacing. By analyzing the pressure fluctuation closed to the surge line, it can be known that there exists an eigenfrequency where the amplitude of the oscillating pressure suddenly and dramatically increases as the compressor runs close to the surge line and this pressure disturbance is relevant to the compressor instability.
IPU是APU和EPU高度融合的产物。在EPU模式下,为了不使离心压气机空转导致温度过高,离心压气机处于正转逆流工况。为了满足EPU模式下压气机流量、功耗的要求,采用数值模拟方法,分析流动现象,完成扩压器出口挡板的设计。结果表明:正转逆流工况下离心压气机先对逆流气体做功,之后逆流气体对压气机做功;扩压器出口挡板缝隙存在临界面积,出口挡板缝隙面积大于临界面积时,压气机正转逆流功耗和流量不随挡板缝隙面积变化而变化;扩压器出口挡板缝隙为条形缝隙,缝隙面积占出口总面积的2.6%~1.9%,高压气源压力选择450~800 k Pa。
