Investigation of off-design performance of shock-in-rotor type supersonic blading

An analysis of the off-design performance of shock-in rotor-type supersonic blading is presented. The over-all losses are assumed divided into two groups;normal-shock losses, and external-wave losses. Throughout the range of relative entrance Mach numbers from 1.35 to starting, the largest losses can be attributed to the normal shock. An improvement in performance would be expected with a reduction of the normal-shock losses by the introduction of external compression waves.
