Determination of Surge and Stall Limits of an Axial-flow Turbojet Engine for Control Applications by Ross D. Schmidt,George Vasu,Edward W. McGraw Pdf
During the course of an investigation of an axial-flow turbojet engine in the Lewis altitude wind tunnel, limitations on the transient operation of the engine were determined to relation to two altitudes and exhaust-nozzle-areas. Below approximately 70 percent of the generalized engine rotational speed, a high-frequency oscillation (stall) at the compressor inlet limited transient operation of the engine. Over 70 percent of the engine speed, transient operation was limited by a low-frequency oscillation (surge), which occurred throughout the engine.
