Design optimization methods for a compressor rotor under inlet distortion

Key Points

• Enhanced aerodynamic performance is achievable through specific design optimization methods for compressor rotors under inlet distortion.
• The aerodynamic efficiency improved by 15% and pressure loss reduced by 10% in simulations conducted during the analysis.
• Analysis of flow patterns under varying inlet distortion conditions provided insights into rotor performance.
• These findings may enable more efficient compressor designs, but further validation in real-world applications is necessary.
