Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Flutter-resistant transonic turbomachinery blades and methods for reducing transonic turbomachinery blade flutter are provided. The flutter-resistant transonic turbomachinery blade comprises a transonic turbomachinery blade that includes opposite pressure and suction surfaces extending longitudinally in span from a root to an opposite tip, and extending axially in chord between opposite leading and trailing edges. The flutter-resistant transonic turbomachinery blade includes a local positive camber in or proximate a predicted local region of supersonic flow over the transonic turbomachinery blade. The method comprises predicting a local region of supersonic flow over the transonic turbomachinery blade and inducing the local positive camber to the transonic turbomachinery blade in or proximate the predicted region of supersonic flow.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A flutter-resistant transonic turbomachinery blade comprising: a transonic turbomachinery blade comprising opposite pressure and suction surfaces extending longitudinally in span from a root to an opposite tip, and extending axially in chord between opposite leading and trailing edges, with a chord line connecting the leading and the trailing edges; and a local positive camber in or proximate a predicted local region of supersonic flow over the transonic t…
