TL;DR: In this paper, an approximate theory for post-stall transients in multistage axial compression systems is presented, which leads to a set of three simultaneous nonlinear third-order partial differential equations for pressure rise, and average and disturbed values of flow coefficient, as functions of time and angle around the compressor.
Abstract: An approximate theory is presented for post-stall transients in multistage axial compression systems. The theory leads to a set of three simultaneous nonlinear third-order partial differential equations for pressure rise, and average and disturbed values of flow coefficient, as functions of time and angle around the compressor. By a Galerkin procedure, angular dependence is averaged, and the equations become first order in time. These final equations are capable of describing the growth and possible decay of a rotating-stall cell during a compressor mass-flow transient. It is shown how rotating-stall-like and surgelike motions are coupled through these equations, and also how the instantaneous compressor pumping characteristic changes during the transient stall process.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an introduction to gas turbine engines and jet propulsion for aerospace or mechanical engineers, which is divided into four parts: introduction to aircraft propulsion; basic concepts and one-dimensional/gas dynamics; parametric (design point) and performance (off-design) analysis of air breathing propulsion systems; and analysis and design of major gas turbine engine components (fans, compressors, turbines, inlets, nozzles, main burners, and afterburners).

TL;DR: In this article, a simplified combustion system, from compressor outlet to turbine inlet, is modeled as a one-dimensional mean with linear perturbations, which leads to predictions for the frequencies of oscillations and the susceptibility to instabilities for which linear disturbances grow expotentially in time.
Abstract: Combustion instability has become a major issue for gas turbine manufacturers. Stricter emission regulations, particularly on nitrogen oxides, have led to the development of new combustion methods, such as lean premixed prevaporized(LPP)combustion,to replacethetraditionaldiffusion e ame.However,LPPcombustionismuchmore liable to generate strong oscillations, which can damage equipment and limit operating conditions. As a tutorial, methods to investigate combustion instabilities are reviewed. Theemphasis is on gas turbine applications and LPP combustion. The e ow is modeled as a one-dimensional mean with linear perturbations. Calculations are typically done in the frequency domain. The techniques described lead to predictions for the frequencies of oscillations and the susceptibility to instabilities for which linear disturbances grow expotentially in time. Appropriate boundary conditions are discussed, as is the change in the linearized e ow across zones of heat addition and/or area change. Many of the key concepts are e rst introduced by considering one-dimensional perturbations. Later higher-order modes, particularly circumferential waves, are introduced, and modal coupling is discussed. The modeling of a simplie ed combustion system, from compressor outlet to turbine inlet, is described. The approaches are simple and fast enough to be used at the design stage.
