A condition in an axial-flow compressor in which one or more stages of rotor blades fail to pass air smoothly to the succeeding stages. A stall condition is caused by a pressure ratio that is incompatible with the engine rpm. Compressor stall will be indicated by a rise in exhaust temperature, and if allowed to continue, may result in flameout and physical damage to the engine. An rpm change up and down will also usually result. 2, record 15, English, - compressor%20stall

Figure 15 shows a centrifugal fan installed with the inlet close to a wall without and with a splitter. Without the splitter, the airflows from opposite directions collide and cause turbulence at the fan inlet. With the splitter, the airflows cannot collide and the inlet resistance to the fan is reduced, thus improving fan performance. 2, record 16, English, - splitter

Les ventilateurs centrifuges se prêtent bien à un réglage du débit par création d’une rotation préalable de la veine d’air entrant dans la roue au moyen d’un aubage orientable dit "inclineur"; [...] Il faut remarquer qu'un tel dispositif de réglage, qui n’ est qu'une application de la théorie générale des turbomachines s’applique également aux ventilateurs hélicoïdes. 4, record 16, French, - inclineur

Inclineurs à l’aspiration. Il s’agit d’un jeu de pales directrices orientables placées devant l’ouïe d’aspiration et communiquant à l’air une prérotation de même sens (diminution de pression) ou de sens contraire (augmentation de pression) au sens de rotation de la roue du ventilateur. Applicable aux hélicoïdes aussi bien qu’aux centrifuges ce dispositif présente sur le registre l’avantage de mieux proportionner la puissance absorbée au débit, mais est évidemment plus compliqué. 3, record 16, French, - inclineur
