Abstract:
A new design method for transonic flow in turbomachinery is described. The idea is based on the authors previous experience with hodograph methods but carried out in physical space. If combined with a flow analysis code the new method can be used as a designanalysis tool. Results illustrating this procedure are given for two dimensional flow through cascades and past airfoils. Existing configurations can be made shock-free by computational modifications which are limited to that portion of the design shape which is wetted by supersonic flow. Author
