Abstract
The resulting designs of two different preliminary design tools which are combined with an automatic optimization process are compared. The basis of comparison is the design task of a single-stage axial compressor with design mass flow rate of 2.3 kg/s and the goal to achieve high total pressure ratios. Although different design approaches are applied the two design processes result in similar compressor designs. The compressor designs are characterized by high reaction and low aspect ratio of the blades. The performance of the designs, as predicted by the preliminary design tools, is confirmed with CFD simulations with acceptable margin of deviation. Both optimized preliminary design processes provide designs that are a good basis for further detailed design.
