Abstract: In order to enhance the operational safety of driving system in continuous transonic wind tunnel, the effects of closed-circuit configuration on airflow temperature rise and wind tunnel tube pressure loss is analyzed based on construction, debugging and operation of 0.6 m×0.6 m continuous transonic wind tunnel. The safety features of shafting, surge and Mach number control for axial compressor used in wind tunnel are researched. The test results show that the performance of heat exchanger meets the requirement of axial compressor operation and total temperature in wind tunnel. The experimental basis of operation parameter alarm threshold values of axial compressor shafting and setting of anti-surge curves is achieved, and the critical speeds of torsional vibration are measured. The flow rate and pressure ratio at 100 kPa total pressure are used for the anti-surge curves of axial compressor, and Mach number can be controlled by the rotational speed of axial compressor and the position of mechanical central part.
