Summary: | The compressor section of a gas turbine engine contains a insert (24) installed around the compressor blades that includes cells (28) in a honeycomb configuration. Each cell is at a compound angle to the blade tip to energize the tip air flow as the tip passes over the cell as the blade rotates, improving the stall margin. Each cell is oriented in the direction of the blade chord and facing the advancing blades. As the blade rotates it sweeps by each cell and high pressure airflow is first captured in the cell from the high pressure side of the blade and released to the low pressure side as the blade passes the cell, creating a energizing jet of high velocity flow in the direction of the airflow across the blade. |
