Develop new equation-oriented choking model for compressors
[ ] Choking at the inlet of the impeller
[ ] Choking at the inlet of the splitte blades?
[ ] Choking at the exit of the impeller?
[ ] Choking at the inlet of the diffuser (only for vaned diffusers)
We should focus first on choking at the inlet of the impeller and vaned diffusers
Is there something analogous to the supersonic expansion in supersonic turbines where the inlet flow angle at the inlet of the compressor has to be adapted to satisfy conservation of mass and the metal angle at the inlet of the impeller?
Is choking related to the unique incidence phenomenon?
Are there any relevant use cases where computing the compressor performance under choking is necessary?
We need some cases to motivate the need to develop the model we are proposing
Developing a meanline compressor model with choking is likely scientifically relevant and we could publish a paper describing such a modeling approach.
