Examination of Rotating Stall Inception in a Small High Speed Axial Compressor
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Rotating stall is an internal aerodynamic disturbance that limits the performance and operating life of a compressor. It has been studied with the aim of developing techniques for its prediction and prevention. To further the understanding of rotating stall inception, a test rig was constructed with the axial stages of a Rolls Royce Model 250-C20B small, high speed axial compressor as the test article. A gasoline engine was used to power the compressor and airflow was throttled through a pneumatically controlled valve. Simultaneous static pressure measurements were taken with seven high speed transducers arranged in two configurations: distributed both axially and circumferentially around the compressor casing. The compressor characteristic was mapped and detailed pressure measurements were taken between normal and surge operating conditions. Previous studies of high speed multi-stage compressors have shown both modal and spike type stall inception at different compressor stages. Other examinations of the Model 250 compressor have shown stall inception occurring at the first stage of the compressor. Similar results were observed in this study and an analysis was conducted using a variety of signal processing techniques including pressure trace inspection and discrete spatial Fourier decomposition.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
