Axial-Flow Compressors A Strategy for Aerodynamic Design and Analysis

Modern axial-flow compressor aerodynamic design and analysis technology is so often proprietary, and the role of computers is so pervasive that about the only way this subject can be described today is to concentrate on a specific system. The author provides a complete description of an actual working system, with particular emphasis on: - Practical methodology that can easily be implemented on a personal computer- Detailed descriptions sufficient to implement and apply all or part of the system- Integration of the various methods into an efficient design and analysis system- Core topics of performance prediction, aerodynamic design, and internal flow analysis- Novel topics, such as an efficient multi-stage compressor design procedure and application to working fluids requiring a non-ideal gas equation of state- Many design examples to evaluate and demonstrate a variety of design strategiesAungier, Ronald H. is the author of 'Axial-Flow Compressors A Strategy for Aerodynamic Design and Analysis' with ISBN 9780791801925 and ISBN 0791801926.
