► STATOR | Meridional contour

In principle, the same features are available as for the meridional design of impellers.

The endpoints of hub and shroud curves are fixed by main dimensions and cannot be modified here.

For "Radial" type of stators (see main dimensions) the following geometrical dimensions are defined:

Apart from the additional views of the impeller the following is available:

Isentropic Mach number

Progression of the isentropic Mach number is done based on the area section between hub and shroud. Apart from that, the same principles are used as in the blade design steps.
