Abstract
The design of a small transonic research compressor is reviewed briefly. The
design was one carried out by M. H. Vavra before 1970 without resort to computer
programs. The effect of an error made in the calculation of setting
angles for the rotor blading is judged to be serious near the blade tip. A
possible mismatch to the stator is suggested and it is recommended that the
possibility of structually correcting the stagger at the tip be considered.
