2. Surge in compressors - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surge_in_compressors

   While fully developed compressor surge is axisymmetric, its initial phase is not necessarily axisymmetric. Actually, severe damage of compressor surge is often related to very large transverse loads on blades and casing in its initial transient. [7] A chain reaction of compressor surge is the flameout of a jet engine. Due to a lack of air ...

3. Compressor stall - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_stall

   Comparison of normal and distorted airflow into the compressor section [1] A compressor stall is a local disruption of the airflow in the compressor of a gas turbine or turbocharger. A stall that results in the complete disruption of the airflow through the compressor is referred to as a compressor surge. The severity of the phenomenon ranges ...

   Compressor surge is a particular problem during slam-accelerations and can be overcome by suitable adjustments to the fueling schedule and/or use of blow-off (bleeding air off the compressor, for handling purposes). In the particular example shown, a slam-acceleration from ground idle would cause a high-pressure compressor surge.

5. Blowoff valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowoff_valve

   The sound produced by compressor surge is called turbo flutter and the repeated, high speed cycling will cause a cyclic torque on the compressor and may lead to increased stresses on the bearings and compressor impeller. [2] A blowoff valve is designed to release pressure in the intake system when the throttle is closed.

6. Turbine engine failure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbine_engine_failure

   A compressor surge is a disruption of the airflow through a gas turbine jet engine that can be caused by engine deterioration, a crosswind over the engine's inlet, ice accumulation around the engine inlet, ingestion of foreign material, or an internal component failure such as a broken blade. While this situation can be alarming, the engine may ...
