Velocity triangles
Elementary analysis of axial compressors begins
with velocity triangles.
The analysis will be carried out at the mean height
of the blade, where the peripheral velocity or the
blade speed is, U.
The absolute component of velocity will be
denoted by, C and the relative component by, V.
The axial velocity (absolute) will be denoted by Ca
and the tangential components will be denoted by
subscript w (for eg, Cw or Vw)
denotes the angle between the absolute velocity
with the axial direction and the corresponding
angle for the relative velocity.

Degree of reaction
Diffusion takes place in both rotor and the
stator.
Static pressure rises in the rotor as well as
the stator.
Degree of reaction provides a measure of
the extent to which the rotor contributes to
the overall pressure rise in the stage.

Degree of reaction
Special cases of Rx
Rx=0, 2 = 1 , There is no pressure rise in the
rotor, the entire pressure rise is due to the
stator, the rotor merely deflects the incoming
flow: impulse blading
Rx=0.5, gives 1 = 2 and 2 = 1 , the velocity
triangles are symmetric, equal pressure rise in
the rotor and the stator
Rx=1.0, 2 = 1 , entire pressure rise takes
place in the rotor while the stator has no
contribution.

Diffusion factor
Fluid deflection (2-1)is an important
parameter that affects the stage pressure rise.
Excessive deflection, which means high rate of
diffusion, will lead to blade stall.
Diffusion factor is a parameter that associates
blade stall with deceleration on the suction
surface of the airfoil section.
Diffusion factor, D*, is defined as
Vmax V2
D = Where,Vmax is the ideal surface velocity at
V1
the minimum pressure point and V2 is the ideal velocity
at the trailing edge and V1 is the velocity at the leading edge.

Diffusion factor
Lieblein (1953) proposed an empirical
parameter for diffusion factor.
It is expressed entirely in terms of known or
measured quantities.
It depends strongly upon solidity (C/s).
It has been proven to be a dependable indicator of
approach to separation for a variety of blade
shapes.
D* is usually kept around 0.5.
