  2. Compressor stall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_stall

    Axi-symmetric stall, more commonly known as compressor surge; or pressure surge, is a complete breakdown in compression resulting in a reversal of flow and the violent expulsion of previously compressed air out through the engine intake, due to the compressor's inability to continue working against the already-compressed air behind it. The ...

  3. Surge in compressors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surge_in_compressors

    While fully developed compressor surge is axisymmetric, its initial phase is not necessarily axisymmetric. Actually, severe damage of compressor surge is often related to very large transverse loads on blades and casing in its initial transient. [7] A chain reaction of compressor surge is the flameout of a jet engine. Due to a lack of air ...

  4. Compressor characteristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_characteristic

    In the compressor at high pressure stages if there occurs a deviation from design point (at which compressor is designed to operate) the angle of attack exceeds its stalling value and stall cells (which are the regions where fluid starts to whirl at a particular location and doesn't move forward) to form at hub and tip of the blade.

  5. Compressor map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_map

    The slightly kinked diagonal line on the main part of the map is known as the surge (or stall) line. Above this line is a region of unstable flow, which is an area best avoided. A compressor surge or compressor stall causes an abrupt reversal of airflow in the compressor. Compressor blades create a pumping action by working as airfoils.

  6. Flow separation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_separation

    In the case of airfoils, the pressure field modification results in an increase in pressure drag, and if severe enough will also result in stall and loss of lift, all of which are undesirable. For internal flows, flow separation produces an increase in the flow losses, and stall-type phenomena such as compressor surge, both undesirable ...

  8. Surge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surge

    Surge (waves), transient or periodic motion in the direction of propagation, specially of a breaking wave or surf Terminal lucidity , also known as "the surge" in medicine, where a patient regains significant consciousness and energy immediately preceding their death

  9. Axial fan design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_fan_design

    For a further the explanation of stall and rotating stall, refer to compressor surge. The stall zone for the single axial fan and axial fans operated in parallel are shown in the figure. [4] The Figure shows the Stall Prone Areas differently for One fan and Two fans in parallel. [4] The following can be inferred from the graph :
