Unsteady computations of a counter-rotating axial compressor are performed and analyzed to investigate the unsteady behaviors in the compressor and the role of the tip leakage flow together with the rotating stall inception process. The results show that the oscillation on the pressure side is much stronger than that on the suction surface for both rotors, especially near the tip region where the trajectory of the tip leakage vortex (TLV) interacts with the blades most often. There exists a periodical leading edge spillage of the interface in rotor2 due to the unsteadiness of tip leakage flow (TLF) at near-stall condition. The blockage generated by the TLV increases dramatically due to the increasing strength of the TLV and the backflow phenomenon as the mass flow decreased. The appearance of the frequency components of 0.5 blade passing frequency (BPF) and 1.5BPF from 0.64BPF can be viewed as the rotating stall inception warning. The fluctuation strength of oscillation frequencies of 0.5BPF and 1.5BPF decreases rapidly from leading edge to trailing edge in rotor2, which indicates that the unsteady fluctuation of TLF at the leading edge in rotor2 is responsible for the stall inception of the compressor. Additionally, both the leading edge spillage and trailing edge backflow phenomena are observed for spike initiated rotating stall at stall point.
