Numerical Investigation of Subsonic Axial-Flow Tandem Airfoils for a Core Compressor Rotor

The tandem airfoil has potential to do more work as a compressor blade than a single airfoil without incurring significantly higher losses. Although tandem blades are sometimes employed as stators, they have not been used in any known commercial rotors. The goal of this work is to evaluate the aerod...
