INTRODUCTION
1.1compressors
Compressor is a device used to deliver the air at a pressure higher than that original pressure.
Basically compressors are broadly classified into two types based upon their function
They are
1. positive displacement
2. Dynamic displacement
Dynamic compressors work by mechanically changing the velocity of the working fluid.
1.2.1CENTRIFUGAL COMPRESSORS
A centrifugal compressor is a radial flow dynamic displacement machine that uses mostly air
as the working fluid and utilizes the mechanical energy imparted to the machine from outside
to increase the total internal energy of the fluid mainly in the form of increased static
pressure head.
1. Stationary casing
2. Rotating impeller
3. Diffuser
Air is sucked into the impeller eye and whirled outwards at high speed by the impeller disk.
At any point in the flow of air through the impeller the centripetal acceleration is obtained by
a pressure head so that the static pressure of the air increases from the eye to the tip of the
impeller. The remainder of the static pressure rise is obtained in the diffuser, where the very
high velocity of air leaving the impeller tip is reduced to almost the velocity with which the
air enters the impeller eye.
Usually, about half of the total pressure rise occurs in the impeller and the other half in the
diffuser. Owing to the action of the vanes in carrying the air around with the impeller, there
is a slightly higher static pressure on the forward side of the vane than on the trailing face.
The air will thus tend to flow around the edge of the vanes in the clearing space between the
impeller and the casing. This results in a loss of efficiency and the clearance must be kept as
small as possible. Sometimes, a shroud attached to the blades may eliminate such a loss, but
it is avoided because of increased disc friction loss and of manufacturing difficulties.
The straight and radial blades are usually employed to avoid any undesirable bending stress
to be set up in the blades. The choice of radial blades also determines that the total pressure
rise is divided equally between impeller and diffuser.
Large frontal area for a given air flow rate compared to the axial flow
compressor.
Unsuitable for very high compression, limited pressure.
They are sensitive to changes in gas composition.
They work at high speed, sophisticated vibration mounting needed.

1. Rotor
2. Stator
Axial flow compressor arrangement will start with set of inlet guides vanes This is an
additional stator row upstream of the first stage in the compressor and serves to direct the
axially approaching flow correctly into the first row of rotating blades and former carrying
moving blades and followed by stationary blades.
The stationary blades convert the kinetic energy of the fluid into pressure energy, and also
redirect the flow into an angle suitable for entry to the next row of moving blades. Each stage
will consist of one rotor row followed by a stator row. For a compressor, a row of rotor

In axial flow compressors the air enters and leaves in the axial direction. So, the centrifugal
component in the energy equation does not come into play. Here the compression is fully
based on diffusing action of the passages. The diffusing action in stator converts absolute
kinetic head of the fluid into pressure rise. The relative kinetic head in the energy equation is
a term that exists only because of the rotation of the rotor. The rotor reduces the relative
kinetic head of the air and adds it to the absolute kinetic head of the fluid. Hence the rotor
increases the absolute velocity of the fluid and the stator converts this into pressure rise.
Designing the rotor passage with a diffusing capability can produce a pressure rise in
addition to its normal functioning. This produces greater pressure rise per stage in axial flow
compressors.
Blast furnaces.
For given mass flow rate, It requires less frontal area than centrifugal compressors
and thus reduction in drag.
The vortex generator is an Passive flow control device consisting of a small vane or bump
that creates a vortex .Vortex generators delay flow separation and aerodynamic stalling; they
improve the effectiveness of control surfaces; they alleviate potential shock-stall. It is likely
to be found on the external surfaces of wings of an aircraft where flow separation is a
potential problem because vortex generators delay flow separation. On aircraft they are
installed on the front third of a wing in order to maintain steady airflow over the control
surfaces at the rear of the wing.

There are so many different types of vortex generators are using in aircraft industry. Some of
the vortex generators are shown below

The project mainly concentrates on the preliminary design of the axial flow compressor
along with vortex generators on the suction surface of stator blades and how the vortex
generators on the suction surface of stator blades will affect the flow in the stator passage. To
design an axial flow compressor first setup the air foil nomenclature and further we need to
assume some of the parameters such as Air mass flow rate , Axial velocity , Pressure ratio ,
Blade speed,.. etc. we need to calculate some of the variables such as pressure ratio
,temperature across the each stage ,velocity triangles. Using MATLAB we generate
MATLAB code for further studies or any new design development in axial compressors. As
we stated earlier about the proper position of the vortex generators, we calculate the position
and proper size of vortex generators and how many pair of vortex generators to be placed on
the suction surface of the stator blade in axial flow compressors.

THEORY OF AXIAL FLOW COMPRESSOR AND VORTEX
GENERATORS
3.1 Introduction
This chapter describes the significance of the axial flow compressor i.e., how it works, what
are the parameters governing of the axial flow compressor and how the pressure is increased.
Early axial flow units had pressure ratios of around 5:1 and required about 10stages. Over the
years the overall pressure ratios available have risen dramatically, and some turbofan engines
have pressure ratios exceeding 30: 1. Continued aerodynamic development has resulted in a
steady increase in stage pressure ratio, with the result that the number of stages for a given
overall pressure ratio has been greatly reduced
It is assumed that the flow will have the same axial velocity as before and after passing
through the stage. The work done by the compressor and the rise of the temperature across.
Each stage and the velocity of air inside the passage can be calculated from the velocity
triangles. The passage between the compressor blades is shown below
Figure: 3.1 16 stage axial flow compressor (adopted from Cohen and Rogers)
Figure: 3.2 passage between blades (adopted from Cohen and Rogers)
W = h03-h01 = h02-h01
U Vf
t0s = (U Vf (tan (2) - tan (1)) -------->3
The above equation represents the temperature change across each stage.
Stagnation properties across the stator remains constant, but in practice, there will be some
decrease in stagnation pressure in the stator due to fluid friction. Losses will also occur in the
rotor and the stagnation pressure rise will be less than would be obtained with an isentropic
compression and. the same power input. A T-s diagram for the stage, showing the effect of
losses in both rotor and stator, is also shown in figure below,
This diagram indicates the deviation of the process from ideal to real case, where the ( )
properties indicate the ideal process whose entropy is constant but in practice the process will
have losses. Using this difference the isentropic efficiency of compressor is determined,
It is denoted by i

i = , isentropic efficiency of compressor

The total pressure rise is not occurred in the rotor passage alone, only a part of pressure is
increased in rotor and the remaining pressure is increased in stator.
The amount of pressure rise in rotor alone is defined by the term known as degree of
reaction. Denoted by R.
It tells about how effectively the rotor is working than stator, a good compressor should have,
R=0.5.
It is the ratio of enthalpy rise across rotor to the enthalpy rise across the stage.
21
R= 31
R=2 (tan(1) +tan (2))
In the compressor as the pressure increases it is hard for the flow to pass over
the airfoil or blade due this is known as adverse pressure gradient. The flow loses its energy
to move forward as a result due to its low energy the flow gets separated from the surface this
is known as boundary layer separation.
The vortex generators produce vortices which increases the kinetic energy of the flow and
decrease the boundary layer separation.
The dimensions of the vortex generators depend on the size of the boundary layer,
smoothness of the surface etc. and usually positioned in the transition region after which the
flow requires energy to get stick with the surface.
CHAPTER-4
PROBLEM STATEMENT
When a vortex generator deployed at proper positions delays the boundary layer separation
over the blade surface and improves the aerodynamics of the flow over the blade surface. The
ability of vortex generators is to reduce the cross-passage secondary flow in a stator passage.
The vortex generators which are placed apart equally over the span of the blade on the
suction side of a stator, yields a good performance in terms of developing a favorable
pressure ratio of the stage. The separation of the flow is delayed due to the formation of tip
vortices over the vortex generators.
Vortex generators are designed in CATIAv5 and Study of flow on stator blade with vortex
generators and without vortex generation using ANSYS SOFTWARE

the axial flow compressor and vortex generators.

m/s,
N=14786.77 rpm
The blade speed at the tip of the rotor Ut =333.37 m/s .
At this stage it is appropriate to check the Mach number relative to the rotor tip
at inlet to the compressor. Assuming the axial velocity to be constant across the
annulus, which will be the case where there are no inlet guide vanes,
Velocity of air at blade tip " V1t "
V1t2 = Ut2+ Ca2
V1t = 374.219 m/s .
the speed of sound is obtained from

mach number is the ratio of flow velocity to the local speed of sound.

M= 1.12
Thus the mach number relative to the rotor tip is 1.12 and the first stage is
transonic.
To estimate the annulus dimensions at exit from the compressor, and for these preliminary
calculations it will be assumed that the mean radius is kept constant for all stages. The
compressor delivery pressure, at the exit is
P0L =415 x 101 =419 bar.
To estimate the compressor delivery temperature it will be assumed that the polytropic
efficiency of the compressor is 090.

A temperature rise of 28.36 K per stage implies = 579 stages. It is likely,

then, that the compressor will require five or six stages and, in view of the
influence of the work-done factor, five stages is consider. An attempt will therefore be made
to design a five-stage compressor.
With stages and an overall temperature rise of 164.296 K the average temperature rise is
32.8 K per stage. A good starting point would be to assume for temperature rise across the
stage is constant.
5.5 Stage-by-stage design
Having determined the rotational speed and annulus dimensions, and estimated the number
of stages required, the next step is to evaluate the air angles for each stage at the mean radius.
It will then be possible to check that the estimated number of stages is likely to result in an
acceptable design.

Determination of the chord length will now depend on the pitch, which itself is clearly
dependent on the number of blades in the row. When making a choice for this number, the
aspect ratio of the blade, i.e. the ratio of length to chord, has to be considered because of its
effect on secondary losses. This will be discussed in greater detail in the next section on stage
performance.

Pitch to chord ratio is given by

= 0.7686
Assuming the number of blades as 45

substitute the pitch value in pitch to chord ratio

Aspect ratio of the blade is the ratio of span to chord
=
AR=3.5
One further item of information is necessary before the design of the blade forms at this
radius can be completed. Whereas the blade inlet angle 1 will be known from the air inlet
angle and chosen incidence, the blade outlet angle 2 cannot be determined from the air
outlet angle.
The deviation angle is given by
=
2 2
where = [0.23 ( ) ] + (0.1) 502
a is the distance of the point of maximum camber from the leading edge of the
blade, and 2 is in degrees. Frequently a circular arc camber-line is chosen so that 2a/c = 1,
= 0.2977
then = 0.2282
With this information it is now possible to fix the main geometrical parameters of
the rotor blade row . The procedure is as follows,

the deviation angle = 4.657.
The position of the blade chord can be fixed relative to the axial direction by
the stagger angle given by

Figure 5.3 effect of mach no on losses (adopted from cohen and rogers)
As the Mach number increases, two important effects take place first, the overall level of
losses increase substantially, and second, the range of
incidence for which losses are acceptable is drastically reduced.
Compressibility effects will be most important at the front of the compressor where the inlet
temperature, and hence the acoustic velocity, are lowest. The Mach number corresponding to
the velocity relative to the tip of the rotor is the highest encountered and is important both
from the viewpoint of shock losses and noise. The stator Mach number is generally highest at
the hub radius because of the increased whirl velocity normally required to give constant
work input at all radii in the rotor. It was deduced that this increase in loss must be due to
shock losses, but it was also found that the spacing of the blades had a considerable effect; a
reduction in solidity (i.e. an increase in pitch/chord ratio) caused a rapid increase
in loss.
A pair of double circular arc (DCA) blades , with a supersonic velocity entering in a direction
aligned with the leading edge. The supersonic expansion along the uncovered portion of the
suction side can be analysed by means of the Prandtl-Meyer relations, and the Mach number
will increase as the flow progresses along the suction surface. A shock structure is assumed
in which the shock stands near the entrance to the blade passage, striking the suction surface ,
extending in front of the blade then bending back similar to a bow wave. It is then assumed
that the loss across the shock can be approximated by the normal shock loss taken for the
average of
the Mach number. At A the Mach number is taken to be the inlet relative Mach number. The
value can be calculated from the inlet Mach number and the angle of supersonic turning ,
where the flow is tangential to the surface, using the Prandtl -Meyer relations.

therefore the transition region starting on the blade is 18.77 mm at 62.33% of chord.
The vortex generators is placing at 20 mm percentage of chord is 66.66%
At 66.66% of chord the reynolds number is 2.13*105 .
The next step is determine the spacing of vortex generators along the span of the
blade. The formula is taken from the equations governing vortex flow.

MODELING, MESHING AND PREPROCESSING
The 3-D model of the rotor, stator, rotor-stator assembly models are designed
according to the prescribed dimensions as shown in the figures below. All the
dimensions are in mm. the dimensions of each component of the rotor, stator can be
seen in the figures. The CATIA mode is based on these drafts. IMPORT THE
AIRFOIL CO-ORDINATES:
After import the co ordinates in CATIA, select the mechanical design then
choose WIREFRAME AND SURFACE DESIGN.
Join the co ordinates using SPLAIN command.
Create axis system, to provide angles go to insert- operations ,and then to
select rotate command all these in wireframe and surface design.
After joining the co ordinates the blade design is obtained to fill upper and
lower surface use a MULTI-SECTION command.
After filling the both upper and lower surface, using FILL command to close
both the sides of the blade.
Join all the individual parts into a single using JOIN command.
To make solid surface we used CLOSE SURFACE command.
After completion of solid blade, go to CIRCULER PATTERN in
GENERATIVE SHAPE DESIGN .
After obtaining circular pattern create a solid casing for stator and hub for
rotor.
Assemble both stator and rotor in ASSEMBLY DESIGN.
ANSYS is a popular proprietary software package used for CAD and mesh generation. Some
open source software includes OpenFoam, Fear Flow, and OpenFVM. Present discussion is
applicable to ANSYS ICEM CFD software. It can create structured, unstructured, multi-
block and hybrid grids with different cell geometries.
6.2.1 Meshing
ANSYS ICEM CFD is meant to mesh a geometry already created using other dedicated CAD
packages. Therefore, the geometry modeling features are primarily meant to 'clean-up' an
imported CAD model. Nevertheless, there are some very powerful geometry creation, editing
and repair (manual and automated) tools available in ANSYS ICEM CFD which assist in
arriving at the meshing stage quickly. Unlike the concept of volume in tools like GAMBIT,
ICEM CFD rather treats a collection of surfaces which encompass a closed region as BODY.
Therefore, the typical topological issues encountered in GAMBIT (e.g. face cannot be
deleted since it is referenced by higher topology) don't show up here. The emphasis in ICEM
Apart from the regular points, curves, surface creation and editing tools, ANSYS ICEM CFD
especially has the capability to do BUILD TOPOLOGY which removes unwanted surfaces
and then you can view if there are any 'holes' in the region of interest for meshing. Existence
of holes would mean that the algorithm which generates the mesh would cause the mesh to
'leak out' of the domain. Holes are typically identified through the color of the curves. The
following is the color coding in ANSYS ICEM CFD, after the BUILD TOPOLOGY option
has been implemented:
YELLOW: curve attached to a single surface - possibly a hole exists. In some cases this
might be desirable for e.g., thin internal walls require at least one curve with single surface
attached to it.
both structured and unstructured meshes using structured or unstructured algorithms which
can be given as inputs to structured as well as unstructured solvers, respectively.
O-grid
C-grid
Quarter O-grid
H-grid
6.2.4 Unstructured meshing strategy
Unlike the structured approach for meshing, the unstructured meshing algorithm is more or
less an optimization problem, wherein, it is required to fill-in a given space (with curvilinear
boundaries) with standard shapes (e.g., triangle, quadrilaterals - 2D; tetrahedral, hexahedral,
polyhedral, prisms and pyramids - 3D) which have constraints on their size. The basic
algorithms employed for doing unstructured meshing are:
Octree (easiest from the user's perspective; robust but least control over the final cell
count which is usually the highest)
Delaunay (better control over the final cell count but may have sudden jumps in the size
of the elements)
Advancing front (performs very smooth transition of the element sizes and may result in
quite accurate but high cell count)

From the computational results, vortex generators on the stator blades can be described by
the following steps:
The static pressure has been increased over the suction surface of stator blade.
The kinetic energy of the flow over the suction surface has been increased.
Boundary layer separation has been delayed.
The shear force in the flow direction has increased.
Air flow rate of 204.71 m/s were used to obtain the results as follows:
Figure 7.2 : pressure contour without vortex generators on suction surface of stator blade
Figure 7.3 : pressure contour without vortex generators on suction surface of stator
blade
Results of for wall shear in flow direction variations for the models are as follows:
7.3 Conclusion
In this study, the employment of vortex generators on the blade surface conveniently builds
the following conclusions.
With regards to the employment of array of vortex generators, the flow stabilizes in the area
where the array of vortex generators have been placed and also the stable pressure rise along
the axial length of the compressor is observed.
The stabilization of the flow is achieved and also the flow is attached throughout thus
delaying separation, as well as a favorable pressure rise is observed along the length of the
domain.
The pressure rise on the blade trailing edge without vortex generators is 1.01*103
pascal.
The pressure rise on the blade trailing edge with vortex generators is
1.85*103 pascal.

FUTURE WORK
8. Future work
In order to further improve on the Vortex generators research, several things done during the
test phase would enhance results. After the numerical analysis was successfully conducted,
we have jolted down some suggestions for the improvement of Vortex generators as follows.
Future projects on vortex generators should consider the possibility of using different
shapes.
With successful completion of these project we concluded the better position of the
vortex generators.
Further development into a better theoretical understanding of vortex generator's,
building on the achievements of this project is another area that requires additional
development. This would enable better performance of turbojet engines.
Placement of vortex generators along the chord and span wise distance can vary it
gives the better performance and pressurization of the engine.
Change the length, height and angle between the vortex generator .
