Abstract

A compressor-face boundary condition that models the unsteady interactions of acoustic and convective velocity disturbances with a compressor has been implemented into a three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics code. Locally one-dimensional characteristics along with a small-disturbance model are used to compute the acoustic response as a function of the local stagger angle and the strength and direction of the disturbance. Simulations of the inviscid flow in a straight duct, a duct coupled to a compressor, and a supersonic inlet demonstrate the behavior of the boundary condition in relation to existing boundary conditions. Comparisons with experimental data show a large improvement in accuracy over existing boundary conditions in the ability to predict the reflected disturbance from the interaction of an acoustic disturbance with a compressor.
