Abstract

A flowfield simulation code was developed based on Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations and validated by experimental data. A numerical optimization code was developed and applied to the optimization design of a circumferentially curved transonic compressor rotor. Results indicate that the circumferential curving can effectively change the three dimensional shock wave structures and weaken wake losses. Optimized blades improve adiabatic efficiency approximately 0.59% and possess fine off-design performance.
