2 Lecture-10 Tutorial -2 Solved Problems and Tutorial Problems On Three Dimensional flow in Axial Flow Compressor 2

3 Recap of simple 3-D flow theories (These are mainly used for design) Lect-10 1)Free Vortex Law : C w.r = constant 2)Forced vortex Law : C w /r = constant 3)Relaxed vortex law : C w.r n = constant A generalized version of the above laws may be stated as : upstream : C w1 = ar n - b/r and, downstream: C w2 = ar n + b/r where R is radius ratio, r/r mean 4) Exponential law : n = 0 a and b are constants to be used for the specific case 3

4 Example 1. Free vortex design is being advocated for design of an axial compressor rotor with high hub/tip radius ratio (0.9) taken to be constant through the stage. At the rotor tip (1m dia) the flow angles are given as : α 1 =30 0, β 1 = 60 0, α 2 =60 0, β 2 = Also, RPM = 6000 ; ρ=1.5. kg/m 3 ; Enthalpy, H(r) = constant and Entropy change, Δs (r)=constant - along blade length. For such a rotor design determine the design point performance parameters : i) Axial velocity C a, constant from root to tip ii) Mass flow rate, ṁ iii) Ideal minimum power to be supplied for this rotor iv) Flow angles at the rotor blade root w.r.t axial dirn. v) Degree of reaction at the blade root 4

5 Solution 1 : (i) Rotor angular velocity, ω = 2π N/60 rad/s = rad/s Blade speed at rotor tip, U tip = ω r t = m/s and, Blade speed at root, U hub = ω r h = m/s and, Blade speed at mean, U mean = ω r mean = m/s Now from standard velocity diagram of a rotor inlet, U tip = C w + V w = C a ( tan α 1 From which, C a = 136 m/s + tan β 1 ) tip (ii) Mass flow rate, ṁ = Annulus area x density x axial velocity = π ( r t 2 r h 2 ). ρ. Ca = 30.4 kg/s 5

6 iii) At inlet to the tip, C w1-tip = C a tan α 1 = 78.6 m/s By applying the Free Vortex Law C w1-mean = C w1-tip.r tip /r mean = m/s At the exit to the tip, C w2-tip = C a tan α 1 = m/s By applying the Free Vortex Law C w2-mean = C w2-tip.r tip /r mean = 248 m/s Minimum Power to be supplied (with 100% efficiency) is the power absorbed by the rotor -- at any radial station, as per free vortex law: W = ṁ. U mean.(c w2-mean - C w1-mean ) = j/s = mw 6

7 iv) Using Free vortex law : C w1-hub = C w1-tip.r tip /r hub C w2-hub = C w2-tip.r tip /r hub = 87.3 m/s = 262 m/s The flow angles at the hub are : tan α 1 = C w1-hub / C a = 87.3/136 = 0.642; α 1 = tan α 2 = C w2-hub / C a = 262/136 = ; α 2 = tan β 1 = U hub / C a - tan α 1 = ; β 1 = tan β 2 = U hub / C a - tan α 2 = ; β 2 =

8 v) Degree of Reaction at the hub : R x-hub = (tan β 2-hub - tan α 1-hub ) C a /2U hub = As one can see also from the answers (iv) the velocity triangles at hub would be asymmetric whereas the velocity triangles are symmetric at the rotor tip (R x = 0.5 ). One can calculate the values at mean and it would be seen that velocity triangle at the mean also would be asymmetric. In free vortex design the velocity triangles can be symmetric at only one radial location along the blade length. 8

9 Example -2. An axial flow compressor is originally designed with free vortex law, and has degree of reaction, Rx = 0.6 at the mean, with hub/tip radius ratio of 0.6 at flow angles at the mean radius are given as α 1 =30 0, β 1 = 60 0, Calculate the relative and absolute flow angles, at the hub and tip both at the inlet and the exit of the rotor and the degree of reaction at both hub and tip. Now if this axial compressor is to be re-designed with exponential law, than recalculate the relative and the absolute flow angles, at the hub and the tip both at the inlet and at the exit of the rotor and, the degree of reaction at both hub and tip. Prescribed, a = 100 ; b=40 9

10 Solution 2 Following the procedure adopted in the 1 st problem the solution for the original free vortex design may be found to be : α 1-hub = ; β 1-hub = ; α 2-hub = ; β 2-hub =-30 0 α 1-tip = ; β 1-tip = ; α 2-tip = 54.2 ; β 2-tip = 56.3 Using the degree of reaction relations developed R x-hub = 0.29 R x-tip =

11 For exponential law re-design we apply the law : upstream : C w1 = a - b/r and, downstream: C w2 = a + b/r where R is radius ratio, r/r mean And a = 100 ; b=40 expressed in m/s C w1-hub = 46.7 m/s ; C w1-tip = 68 m/s Solving the velocity triangles we get : C a1-hub = m/s; and C a1-tip = 94.1 m/s 11

12 Using the prescribed law --- in front and behind the rotor; At the hub : C a2-hub =142 m/s ; C w2-hub =153 m/s ; tan α 1-hub = C w1-hub / C a1 = ; α 1-hub = 21 0 tan α 2-hub = C w2-hub / C a2 = 0.93 ; α 2-hub = 43 0 tan β 1-hub = U hub / C a1 - tan α 1 =1.157 ; β 1-hub = tan β 2-hub = U hub /C a2 - tan α 2 =0.392 ; β 2-hub = Degree of Reaction at the hub : R x-hub =

13 Using the prescribed law --- in front and behind the rotor; At the tip : C w2-tip =132 m/s tan α 1-tip = C w1-tip / C a1 = ; α 1-tip = tan α 2-tip = C w2-tip / C a2 = ; α 2-tip = tan β 1-tip = U tip / C a1 - tan α 1 = 2.6 ; β 1-tip = 69 0 tan β 2-tip = U tip /C a2 - tan α 2 = ; β 2-tip = Degree of Reaction at the tip : R x-tip =

14 The values obtained for the Free Vortex and the Exponential Law designs permit us to conclude that : 1) The Degree of Reaction at hub for the exponential design is much higher than that of the free vortex design. That normally makes it a safe design 2) The rotor twist i.e. β 1, β 2 variation from root to tip is much less for the exponential design. This means it will have less structural loading on the blades 14
