Analysis of Aerodynamically Induced Whirling Forces in Axial Flow Compressors

A new analytical model to predict the aerodynamic forces in axial flow compressors due to asymmetric tip-clearance is introduced. The model captures the effects of tip-clearance induced distortion (i.e. forced shaft whirl), unsteady momentum-induced tangential blade forces and pressure induced force...
