What does 'surge' mean in the context of rotors?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello folks,

 

I'm translating a document for a gas turbine manufacturer. Anybody knows what 'surge' means in the following sentence? 

 

'The thrust and surge of the compressor rotor is controlled by the smaller pads on the front and rear faces.'
