Air at a pressure of 101 kPa and temperature of 288 K enters an axial compressor stage with a velocity of 170 m/s. There are no guide vanes, so the air enters in the axial direction only. When traveling through the rotor, the air turns 15 degrees. This means the angle of the relative velocity with respect to the axis is 15 degrees greater when entering the rotor than when it leaves. The rotor spins at 8000 rpm and has...

Use the result of previous problem to design a multistage axial compressor rotating at 15,000 rpm for a mass flow rate of 65 lbm/s and pressure ratio of 4.5. The ambient condi- tion is 70°F and 14.7 psia. The degrees of reaction, work done factor, and energy trans- fer for each stage can vary although the stage efficiencies are all 90%. Keeping the mean radii constant, determine the hub and tip radij and inlet/outlet flow angles for each stage,
