BLADE3D

Three-Dimensional, Inviscid, Rotational Flows With Shock Waves in Axial Compressor Blade Rows


The BLADE3D computer program provides for the calculation of the inviscid flow field in a fully three-dimensional blade passage of an axial compressor rotor or stator. BLADE3D provides the engineer with an accurate inviscid solution capability. The program is applicable to arbitrary axial compressor hub, tip, and blade geometries, including rotors with dampers (part-span shrouds). The analysis method employed in BLADE3D is valid for subsonic, transonic, and supersonic flows, including choked flows. BLADE3D may also be used for flow calculations in axial turbines, but with lowered resolution in sections of the flow.
