Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

Designs for future aero engines aim for increased efficiency with reduced exhaust gas and noise emissions. To achieve these goals, comprehensive physical understanding and highly innovative solutions are necessary. Even though computational capabilities are rising, the required confidence level is restrained. To understand and validate theoretical and numerical models, extensive experiments at realistic operating conditions are crucial. The modular compressor at the Transonic Compressor Darmstadt test facility at Technical University of Darmstadt enables investigations of prototype BLISK rotors in single or 1.5-stage setups, operating at high-speed conditions. Extensive steady and time-resolving instrumentation is used to determine the compressor aerodynamics and performance as well as aeroelastics. To foster improvements in numerical modelling and predictability based on high quality experimental data, the TUDa-GLR-OpenStage test case is introduced. It comprises a single stage setup, including the BLISK rotor, a 3D-optimized stator as well as the annulus contour. The data set is supplemented with comprehensive measurement data at stage inlet and outlet as well as running tip clearances. This paper describes the open test case, related geometries, measurement procedures and corresponding experimental results, including steady state performance and unsteady aerodynamics. Ultimately, it is aiming to provide a standard case for future development of numerical models and comparable validation.
