Abstract
AbstractA numerical study on the performance of synthetic jet for flow separation control on a high-speed compressor stator vane is performed. Four control schemes including full-span and part-span configurations are investigated at both design and off-design conditions. Results indicate that both full-span and part-span schemes could effectively delay flow separation and reduce total pressure loss for the compressor stator vane, the adaptability of the flow control under off-design conditions is also validated. Within the investigated incidence range, the full-span configuration is able to gain the most significant performance improvement, by which a maximum loss reduction of 23.8 % is obtained at i=2 deg. The part-span configuration could reorganize the vortex structures more efficiently and cut off the interaction between the ring-like vortex and the passage vortex, thus improving its performance in the corner region. In terms of flow control efficiency, the part-span configurations turn out to be more superior, where the highest control efficiency of 614.0 % is achieved at i=0 deg with the total height of the actuator being 40 %H. The flow control efficiency for all the schemes is higher than 100 % within the whole operating range, demonstrating a promising prospect for the application of synthetic jet in axial compressors.
