The Role of Tip Leakage Flow in Spike-Type Rotating Stall Inception

This paper describes the role of tip leakage flow in creating the leading edge separation necessary for the onset of spike-Type compressor rotating stall. A series of unsteady multi-passage simulations, supported by experimental data, are used to define and illustrate the two competing mechanisms th...
