1. 1. Numerical analysis of aerodynamic damping in a transonic compressor

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Author : Vincenzo Stasolla; [2019]
   Keywords : transonic compressor; flutter; vibration; CFD; transonic kompressor; fladder; vibration; CFD;

   Abstract : Aeromechanics is one of the main limitations for more efficient, lighter, cheaper and reliable turbomachines, such as steam or gas turbines, as well as compressors and fans. In fact, aircraft engines designed in the last few years feature more slender, thinner and more highly loaded blades, but this trend gives rise to increased sensitivity for vibrations induced by the fluid and result in increasing challenges regarding structural integrity of the engine.
