'5 Claims. (Cl. 230-122) This invention relates to axial fiow compressors for elastic fluid.
An object of the invention is to provide a compressor whose blades have slots or other opening means in their surfaces at selected localities for controlling the boundary layer. g
Another object is to provide simple and eifective slot constructions for the blades.
Other objects will appear from the specification, drawings and claims.
' The above objects are accomplished by the means illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which- Fig. l is a fragmentary axial section of a compressor according to this invention; 7
- Fig. 2 is a fragmentary transverse section of a rotor on line 2-2 in Fig. l; r
i Fig. 3 isa fragmentary development of the blading of arotor upstream stage;

Fig. 5 is an enlarged section of an upstream rotor blade on line 5 5 in Fig. l; j Fig. 6 is a fragmentary'enlarged side view of a rotor blade;

Fig. 8 is an enlarged section of a downstream rotor blade on line 8-8 in Fig. 2; and
Fig.9 is a fragmentary chordwise view of a front beam of a blade.
, In a compressor rotor the blades may be placed closely together about the periphery of the rotor hub so that the flow is constrained to follow the upper or convex sur- The blades as shown particularly in Figs. 1, 3 and 5 each have an opening means such as for instance a slot 65 positioned between the leading edge L.E. of its blade and the normal projection 68 thereon of the following blades leading edge. That is the slot is in the nose portion 6869 of the upper surface. Preferably the slot is at or closely adjacent to its blades leading edge and extends along a major portion of the radial extent of the.
blade. The slots lead out of the hollow interiors 70 of the blades. A rim means 58 is carried on the hub of each rotor at the radially inner ends of the blades and extends in closed relation from blade to blade and from the leading to the trailing edges of each blade to sustain in conjunction with the case 12 the static pressure rise in each stage.
These upstream blades 50 have their hollow interiors in communication with the hollow interiors 72 of the blades 54 of rotor 22 through the radially inner ends of said blades, the manifolds 73, 74 and channels 80 formed in the hub as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. There are four such channels 80 spaced peripherally about the rotor.
The interiors of the blades of rotors 21 and 23 are in communication through the manifolds 75, 76 of channels.
82 shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
The blades 54 of rotor 22 have induction slots 84 in the surface preferably nearer to its blades leading edge at the rotor 20, fluid will enter the slots of the blades 54' and flow forward in channels 80 to the slots 65 issuing therefrom as rearward directed jets.
The inward flow into the slots 84 of blades 54 will control the boundary layer and enable the blades to operate at larger angles of attack. Also the jets from slots 65 will control the boundary layer and enable the blades to operate at larger angles of attack.
In like manner the flow into the slots 86 of blades 56 v and out of slots 87 of blades 52 will control their respective boundary layers and enable the blades to operate at faces of the blades even for large curvature in the aft portions of the blades. This 'ability'of the flow to cling to the convex surface is also aided bythe centrifugal action on-the boundary layer which causes it to flow radially outward to blade sections of lower camber.
{ When these conditions prevail the portion of a blade from which the flow may most readily separate is that ahead of the projection thereon of the leading edge of the adjacent blade. A slot or other opening means will be most effective if located in the blade chordwise between its leading edge and the normal projection thereon of the leading edge of an adjacent following blade. Preferably the slot should be close to its own blade leading edge.
Referring now to the drawings the compressor is indicated generally as 10. -.It comprises the case means 12 which houses the rotor assembly 14. This assembly in turn cornprisesthe-rotors 20 23. g g
The case 12 supports the stators*2629 each positignedrearward of a rotor. The stators comprise a plurality of stator blades 30-33.
Thefluid tobecompressed by the compressor enters therannular inlet 40 and is discharged from the annular exit42; 1
larger angles of attack.
The hollow interiors of the stator blades of the front two stators are respectively in communication with the hollow interiors of the blades of the two rear stators 28 and 29. The blades 30 and 31 have discharge slots and the blades 32 and 33 have induction slots.
The interiors of stator blades 30 are in communication with the interiors of stator blades 32 by way of manifolds 88, 89 and channel 90.
The interiors of stator blades 31 are in communica tion with the hollow interiors of stator blades .33 through manifolds 98, 39 and channels 92. For this purpose the rear ends of these channels are open into the space 93.
See Fig. 2.
The blades 50 and 52 with discharge slots are prefer-.
ably formed as shown in Fig. 5 for blade 50. Each blade comprises an upper surface and a lower surface 102 fixed together at their rear ends. They are spaced apart at their front ends to define the discharge slots 65.
by the beams 104 and 106 ticularly in Figs. 5 and 6. A rib 108 is shown isolated Patented Apr. 19, 1960.
3; .7 in Fig. 7. The flanges 109, 110 and 111 of the ribs are preferably soldered to the beam1li4 and the surfaces 100 and 102. I
The blades 54 ,and 56 are substantially alike, 'As shown in Fig. 8 blade 5 comprises the upper surface 112 and the lower surface 113 one supported on the other at their rear ends and by beams 13- and 116 as well as by ribs120.
Preferably the induction slots are defined by the front ends of the upper and lower surfaces as shown in Fig. 8. This positions the slots as close as about the thickness of a surface to the leading edge LE. It is an economical method of defining the slot since the forming of the front edges of the surfaces is a simple operation.
The beams 104 and 114 are placed close to the leading edges of their blades to relieve the nose portions of the blades of bending stresses. Each beam has openings 136 for the'passageof fluid from one side thereof to the other.
As shown in Figs. 35 and 8 the blades preferably have-ahigh arching of their mean camber lines 140 with the maximum camber ordinate 141 preferably as far back as the mid chord point or still further rearward. Preferably the mean camber line is about normal to the plane of rotation at its aft end and the mean camber maximum ordinate is preferably greater than 8 percent of the blade chord (143) length.
The blades are placed close together peripherally so that boundary layer slots may be omitted within the rotor passages between blades defined at their ends by the projection of the leading and trailing edges onto the adjacent blades normal to their surfaces. See Fig. 3. Preferably the peripheral spacing is such that the leading edge of a following blade of any pair of blades is at or, chordwise forward of the mid chord point of the leading blade of said. pair.
' angles of attack.
It will now be clear that I have disclosed a novel and effective means for obtaining a large range of angles of attack for compressor blades.
While I have illustrated specific forms of the invention, it is to be understood that variations may be made therein and that I intend to claim my invention broadly as indicated by the appended claims.
