Three-dimensional flow simulation and blade tip high-response static pressure measurements were performed on an isolated subsonic compressor rotor to gain more insight into the stall inception mechanism of the compressors. The Navier—Stokes solver, EURANUS, was used for computation. The steady-state flow solution was achieved at the convergence of a four-stage explicit Runge—Kutta integration scheme. The time-dependent calculation was implemented in the implicit dual time stepping scheme, which allowed for the solution of a steady-state problem at each physical time step. The high-response static pressure was measured using five Kulite sensors installed on the casing. The data acquisition frequency was 100 kHz. The recorded data were later analysed using wavelet analysis method.

    Correlating the simulation result and the measurement result, it was shown that as the compressor was approaching the near stall (NS) condition, the tip leakage vortex dissipation and shedding became violent. The shedding or dissipated flow structures would consequently scatter around the blade tip passage, which formed the initial onset of stall disturbances. These scattered vortexes would finally lead to compressor stall as they hit and merge with each other into low-frequency disturbance of significant size and energy. A stall pre-alarming method based on the monitoring of the low-frequency spectrum power at the NS condition was also suggested by this study.
