Feasibility of compressors and expanders utilizing cascades of oscillating airfoils.

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Linear cascades of airfoils in phased harmonic plunging and pitching oscillating are capable of absorbing energy from an airstream or alternatively adding energy to it and they therefore have potential application in compressors or expanders. The feasibility of oscillation and the predicted relationship among geometrical parameters, flow velocity, power, efficiency, pressure ratio, oscillation mode and frequency in axial flow compressors or turboexpanders are examined.
