... stages, which could be accurately predicted based on the periodic static pressure irregularity and skewness. The pre-stall stage was dominated by the rotating instability (RI) phenomenon, and the frequency of the RI was 43% of the blade passing frequency at 70% N max . The experimental results...

...Zeyuan Yang; Yadong Wu; Hua Ouyang Rotating instability (RI) and rotating stall (RS) are two types of aerodynamic instability in axial compressors. The former features the side-by-side peaks below the blade passing frequency (BPF) in frequency spectra, and the latter represents one or more stall...

... establishing the accuracy of predictions, flow structures and time-resolved pressures are closely examined in the vicinity of the main blade leading edge. This reveals the presence of rotating instabilities that may interact with the rotor blades to generate noise. An azimuthal modal decomposition is performed...

..., and the corresponding explanation is presented with validation. Azimuthal mode analysis is applied to both numerical and experimental pressure fluctuation signals of rotating instability (RI) in the axial compressor tip region. For numerical calculations, the signal in the azimuthal mode domain is reconstructed...

... disturbances appears to be causing a unique spectral signature, which is known from investigations on rotating instability. Any arising number of disturbances is matching a specific mode order found within this signature. While the flow coefficient is reduced, the propagation speed of prestall disturbances...
