Abstract

Rotating stall is a primary constraint for the performance of axial flow compressors. This paper establishes a necessary and sufficient condition for a feedback controller to locally stabilize the critical equilibrium of the uniform flow at the inception of rotating stall. The explicit condition obtained in this paper provides an effective synthesis tool for rotating stall control.
