Abstract:

A one dimensional time-marching model to solve the dynamic behavior of a compression system is presented. The computational method is described in some details and it is applied to a three-stage axial compressor with different plenum configurations. This computational model for the simulation of a multistage axial compressor is used to investigate the insertion of an active control system.
