modeling the first stage (rotor and stator) of a compressor using CASCADE method
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
First, the velocity triangles at five different radial positions of the first stage of LM2500 turbine compressor (rotor and stator) needs to be determined. After that, a proper blade profile from the literature needs to be chosen according to the velocity triangles and using the CASCADE data, the blade needs to be modeled in 3D. The Lewis's CASCADE program or any other software can be used for modeling with the condition that the blade model can be imported in FLUENT and CFX later.
