Abstract
Abstract In order to describe how the variant BPR affects the flow performance, a qusi-2D fan model was proposed. In the model, the stage cumulative method was applied to compute axial flow and the simplified radial equilibrium equation was applied to compute radial flow, then a dual-level iteration program was proposed for the nominal performance calculation. To compute the non-nominal flow characteristics on non-nominal BPR, a triple-level iteration program with the compensation factor was proposed to obtain the radial profiles. On that basis, Blade angles were designed for this model on the design point. With the inflow deflection factor designed as 0.8 and the loss factor along blade as 0.95, the pressure ratio error is only 0.21 % and the isentropic efficiency error is 0.06 %. Simulation showed that the variant-BPR profiles and the overall characteristics of flow at fan exit or for bypass & core ducts could be well computed with much less time-consuming.
