Differentcurving effects are produced when the end-bend stator vanes are stacked in different ways. Stacking on theleading edge induces a positive curving effect near the casing.When it is stacked on the centre of gravity, a negativecurving effect takes place. The numerical investigation shows that the flow field is redistributed when theend-bend stators with leading edge stacking are applied. The variations in the stage matching for the mainstreamand near the hub have an impact on the performance of the 2-stage compressor. The isentropic efficiency and thetotal pressure ratio of the compressor are increased near the design condition. The compressor total pressure ratiois decreased near choke and near stall. The maximum flow rate is reduced and the stall margin is decreased.展开更多
