Abstract

See full text

Fan downstream guide vane profiles have an optimized form of skeleton line angle distribution in an area situated between an upper and a lower limitation as well as a specific thickness distribution superimposed on the respective skeleton line angle distribution. Such guide vanes are characterized by lower pressure losses and a larger working range than the known downstream guide vanes, thereby reducing fuel consumption of the engine and increasing the operating stability thereof.
