FIELD: engines.
SUBSTANCE: method of removing heavy particles from air flow in an axial compressor stage and device for axial stage, removing heavy particles based on provision of main mass of heavy particles moving in air flow, pulse from rotating blades of impeller stages and their subsequent separation into area beyond radial size of straightening unit, that is distant from impeller at a certain distance. Device is supposed to be used in assembly of a multistage compressor as one of first of its stages, can be used both in aircraft gas turbine engines and surface transport and stationary gas turbine units.
EFFECT: reduced number of damaged blades from engines ahead of schedule, as well as reduced number of repairs of engines during operation, related to cleaning nicks on blades of compressor due to improved degree of air cleaning in axial compressor stage.
