Problem Description

The problem considered in this tutorial is an axial compressor shown schematically in Figure  25.1. The model comprises a single 3D sector of the compressor to take advantage of the circumferential periodicity in the problem. The flow of air through the compressor is simulated and the postprocessing capabilities of ANSYS FLUENT are used to display realistic, full 360-degree images of the solution obtained.
