Abstract

Disclosed is a method for operating a compressor of a turbomachine, in which, when viewed in the direction of a main flow, a slowly dropping degree of reaction being raised in one compressor area more quickly than previously dropped and the raised degree of reaction then being reduced again in a subsequent compressor area more slowly that it was previously raised, a compressor of a turbomachine including at least one degree of reaction rising more quickly in one compressor area in comparison to adjacent compressor areas with respectively a dropping degree of reaction, whereby a sawtooth-shaped curve of the degree of reaction results, and a turbomachine including a compressor of this type.
