Question 01- Axial Flow Compressor
1.1 The first stage of axial flow compressor is designed using free vortex theory. The rotational speed of the compressor is 60000 rpm and stagnation temperature rise are 20 K . The hub to tip is 0.6 and work done factor is 0.93. The stage has an isentropic efficiency of 0.89. Assume inlet to be axial with velocity of 140ms, pressure 1.01 bar and temperature 288 K . If Mach number relative to tip is 0.95.
Determine
1.1.1 the blade angle at inlet (1).
1.1.2 the mass flow rate across the compressor stage.
(5)
1.1.3 the stage stagnation pressure ratio.
1.1.4 the rotor air angles at the root of the blade.
1.1.5 the power input of the compressor.
