VORTICITY DIAGNOSIS IN THROUGHFLOW DESIGN OF HIGHLY LOADED FAN
A throughflow design method solving axisymmetric Euler equations with vorticity diagnosis is presented. The throughflow method is verified by calculating a transonic fan stage with 3D CFD and experiment results. Vorticity diagnosis as a new criterion in throughflow design is proposed. Vorticity especially circumferential vorticity are used to estimated the quality of throughflow design for highly loaded fan in this paper. The regions where flow separation often occurs in 3D flow can be probed beforehand in throughflow. Therefore swirl distribution which is very critical in throughflow design is prescribed with vorticity diagnosis guidance in this study. Two design examples of highly loaded fans with different swirl distributions are compared based on vorticity diagnosis in throughflow, and validated using 3D CFD solver finally. It demonstrates that vorticity diagnosis can be used to guide throughflow design.
