AXIAL flow compressors suffer fluid dynamic instabilities known as surge and rotating stall.
Surge involves the entire compression system, while rotating stall is local to the compressor …

A small-disturbance theory of rotating stall in axial compressors is extended to finite
amplitude, assuming the compressor characteristic is a parabola over the range of the …

There are great incentives for understanding the transitions to fully developed rotating stall
and developing active control schemes for suppressing the onset of stall. Cast in terms of a …

Modeling and control for axial flow compression systems have received great attention in
recent years. The objectives are to suppress rotating stall and surge, to extend the stable …

The primary objective of this article is to provide experimental validation of the simplified
approach to control of rotating stall presented in Part 1 of this article. The experimental rig …

Furthermore, circumferential sinusoidal waves of the perturbation are the fundamental
eigenmodes, and these eigenmodes develop as rotating waves around the annulus. When …

This paper reports on an experimental program in which active control was successfully
applied to both rotating stall and surge in a multistage compressor. Two distinctly different …

Dynamic control of rotating stall in an axial flow compressor has been implemented using
aeromechanical feedback. The control strategy developed used an array of wall jets …

The series Advances in Industrial Control aims to report and encourage technology transfer
in control engineering. The rapid development of control technology impacts all areas of the …
