A low Mach number preconditioning method has been implemented in commercial computational fluid dynamics software, CFD-FASTRAN. The preconditioning technique offers a way to formulate the Euler and Navier-Stokes equations such that convergences can be made independent of Mach number. This enhancement is shown to provide accurate steady/unsteady state solutions for transonic and low-speed flow through several test cases.

Splitter blades located between stator blades in a single-stage axial compressor were proposed and investigated in this work to find their effects on aerodynamic performance and operating stability. Aerodynamic performance of the compressor was evaluated using three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations using the k-e turbulence model with a scalable wall function. The numerical results for the typical performance parameters without stator splitter blades were validated in comparison with experimental data. The numerical results of a parametric study using four geometric parameters (chord length, coverage angle, height and position) of the stator splitter blades showed that the operational stability of the single-stage axial compressor enhances remarkably using the stator splitter blades. The splitters were effective in suppressing flow separation in the stator domain of the compressor at near-stall condition which affects considerably the aerodynamic performance of the compressor.
