Abstract
This paper investigates the effect of upstream wake on unsteady separated flow field of downstream adjacent vanes by solving 2D unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations discretized by a high-order scheme. The results indicated that the maximum relative reduction of loss coefficient was 27.2% when the relative passing frequency (the ratio of wake passing frequency to the characteristic frequency of trailing-vortex shedding of downstream adjacent rotor) is less than 2.5. The amplitude of wake defect exists a threshold value and the aerodynamic performance is enhanced monotonically with the amplitude of wake defect basically. The effective range of incidence must be greater than 8°, which is near the stall boundary.
