Abstract
A lumped parameter model of the TF34 engine is formulated to study nonrecoverable stall. Features of the model include forward and reverse flow, radial flow in the fan, and variable corrected speed. The purpose of the study is to point out those parameters to which recoverability is highly sensitive but are not well known. Experimental research may then be directed toward identification of the parameters in that category. Compressor performance in the positive flow region and radial flow in the fan are shown to be important but unknown parameters determining recoverability. Other parameters such as compressor performance during reverse flow and in-stall efficiency have relatively small impact on recoverability
