Abstract
The simulations of a low-speed axial compressor rotor with two tip clearance sizes, 0.5% chord and 1.5% chord, were performed in the study. Overall performance and detailed flow fields at near stall condition are analyzed. The results show that the rotor stall occurs at higher mass flow condition with large tip clearance. For the small tip clearance the tip leakage vortex and the corner vortex both contribute significantly to the rotor stall, and the interaction between the vortices promotes the stall generation. While for the large tip clearance the tip leakage vortex plays a primary role, and the vortices interaction is ignorable.
