Abstract
This paper addresses the causal link first described by Smith between the unsteady flow induced by the rotor wakes and the compressor steady-state performance. As an initial step, inviscid flow in a compressor stage is examined. First of a kind numerical simulations are carried out to show that if the rotor wakes are mixed out after (as opposed to before) the stator passage, the time-averaged overall static pressure rise is increased and the mixing loss is reduced. An analytical model is also presented and shown to agree with the numerical results; the model is then used to examine the parametric trends associated with compressor design parameters.
