Development of a 2-D Compressor Streamline Curvature Code

Abstract: Two-dimensional compressor flow simulation software has always been a very valuable tool in compressor preliminary design studies, as well as in compressor performance assessment, operating under uniform and non-uniform inlet conditions. In this context, a new streamline curvature (SLC) software has been developed capable of analyzing the flow inside a compressor in two dimensions. The software was developed to provide great flexibility, in the sense that it can be used as: a) A performance prediction tool for… Show more

“…The majority of these studies used artificial neural networks [58][59][60] and fuzzy expert systems [61] to represent the shape and predict the operating points within the modeled curves of the compressor performance maps. Maps can also be determined by flow analysis schemes such as the stream line curvature (SLC) methodology [62] or high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics approaches (CFD) [63] if the geometry of the mechanical device is accessible.…”

“…Howell's model (1945), which was proved to be accurate by Vassilios Pachidisi [2], is used to estimate secondary loss, sec ϖ . According to Howell's model, a relative air mean angle, mean β , blade lift coefficient, C L , and drag coefficient, C D , are defined.…”

“…At present, most turbomachinery researchers and development institutions still use the SLC method as an important tool for turbomachinery design and performance prediction. A large number of practices [1][2][3] have proved that the SLC method can provide accurate, quick, and inexpensive performance results for the compressor as long as taking reasonable incidence, deviation, loss models etc. into account compared to the full 3D CFD method.…”

“…The internal workings of the two-dimensional SLC Compressor Software have been reported in detail by Templalexis et al [18], Pachidis et al [19] and also in Pachidis [20]. It is therefore inappropriate to repeat here the description of the various loss and deviation models used in the code.…”

“…Since the early 50s, a substantial number of computer codes for axial-flow turbomachine flowfield analysis have been developed using SLC methods, such as Denton [14], Jennions and Stow [15,16], Barbosa [17], Templalexis et al [18], and Pachidis et al [19].…”
