Off-design flow measurements in a centrifugal compressor vaneless diffuser
(1995)
Detailed measurements have been taken of the three-dimensional velocity field within the vaneless diffuser of a backswept low speed centrifugal compressor using hot-wire anemometry. A 16 percent below and an 11 percent ...
A study of Reynolds stresses and loss generation at the inlet to a centrifugal vaneless diffuser
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1995)
Detailed flow measurements at the inlet to a centrifugal compressor vaneless diffuser are presented. The mean velocities and six component stress tensor are used to determine the turbulence production terms which lead to ...
Experimental flow field investigation in a centrifugal compressor vaned diffuser
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1995)
The purpose of this study was to improve the understanding of the flow physics in a centrifugal compressor vaned diffuser. A low speed compressor with a 19 bladed backswept impeller and diffuser with 16 wedge vanes was ...
