摘要
The temporal behaviour of a flow separation in the hub-suction side corner of a transonic diffuser is studied thanks to unsteady numerical simulations based on the phase-lagged approach. The validity of the numerical results is confirmed by comparison with experimental unsteady pressure measurements. An analysis of the instantaneous skin-friction pattern and particles trajectories is presented. It highlights the topology of the separation and its temporal behaviour. The major result is that, despite of a highly time-dependent core flow, the separation is found to be a "fixed unsteady separation" characterized by a fixed location of the main saddle of the separation but an extent of the stall region modulated by the pressure waves induced by the impeller-diffuser interaction.
