Simultaneous operational and geometrical uncertainties are quantified on a 1.5-stage axial compressor (stator-rotor-stator) with leakage flows. The compressor geometry and operational conditions are provided by Safran Aero Boosters. Uncertainties include the mass flow rates of the leakage flows, the tip gap size of the rotor, and the correlated profiles for the main inflow conditions. In total nine uncertainties are propagated by the nonintrusive probabilistic collocation method available within FINE/Design3D. Uncertainties are quantified for the nominal design point as well as for two off-design operating points, close to stall and choke conditions, respectively. The non-deterministic response is analyzed and discussed in detail. It is shown that a sensitivity study, by means of scaled sensitivity derivatives, allows identifying the most influential uncertainties in the operation of this 1.5-stage compressor.
