    • Measurements of rotor stalling in a matched and a mismatched multistage compressor 

      Silkowski, Peter D. (Peter Daniel) (Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1995], 1995)
      This paper presents the results from a set of experiments on stall inception in multistage axial flow compressors. The experiments were tailored to investigate phenomena having a wide range of time and length scales. This ...
    • A computational model for rotating stall and inlet distortions in multistage compressors 

      Gong, Yifang, 1964- (Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1999], 1999)
      This thesis presents the conceptualization and development of a computational model for describing three-dimensional non-linear disturbances associated with instability and inlet distortion in multistage compressors. ...
    • Effects of inlet conditions on centrifugal diffuser performance 

      Deniz, Sabri (Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1997], 1997)
      This report examines the influence of inlet flow conditions, including Mach number, flow angle, blockage, and axial flow non-uniformity, on the performance and operating range of a straight channel centrifugal compressor ...
