摘要
The inlet swirl distortion and non-uniform tip clearance have great effects on aero-engine performance and stall margin.In this paper,the effects of paired swirl distortion on the aerodynamic stability and stall inception of a single stage axial compressor with non-uniform tip clearance are quantitatively analyzed by using the swirl distortion descriptors.The experimental results show that the paired swirl distortion dominated by co-rotating swirl improves the stability of the axial compressor.For a single-stage axial compressor with eccentricity of 100%,the stall inception starts at the maximum tip clearance with clean inlet.The initial position of the stall inception is determined by the maximum tip clearance when the small intensity paired swirl distortion exists at the compressor inlet.As the swirl intensity increases,it shifts towards the position of the counter rotating swirl vortex core.The inlet swirl will not change the type of stall inception.
