The paper “Criteria for Spike Initiated Rotating Stall” by Vo et al. (2008, ASME J. Turbomach., 130, p. 011023) provides a very important contribution to the understanding of spike-type stall inception in axial-flow compressors by demonstrating that spike-type disturbances are directly linked to the tip leakage flow of the rotor. The computational study of Vo et al. leads to the conclusion that two conditions have to be fulfilled simultaneously for the formation of spike-type stall: (i) axial backflow at the leading edge plane and (ii) axial backflow at the trailing edge plane. The objective of the present technical brief is to support these findings by corresponding experimental results.
