Question:

The axial-momentum theory approximation to blade design breaks down when r/R becomes too small. Use eqs. (30.11)

(1 – a)v 2r tan o = tan(6 + a) : = (1- a) ir %3D


and (30.15) 

K 8πα sin o Аст Ac, B


to show that the condition KB < 2πr limits the angle φ to sin φ tan φ < c(1 − a)/(4a). For the choice of parameters in Figure 30.10 


what is the smallest value of r/R allowed by this condition?
