The Moore-Greitzer formulation for compressor dynamics is extended to symmetric-flow compressor map shapes other than the cubic map treated by Moore and Greitzer. Two families of curves, odd-polynomial and even-polynomial families, are defined that provide a wide range of shapes in the stable-flow regime, and the amplitudes of flow asymmetry in steady rotating stall are calculated for members of both...
