1 Flow Behavior and Performances of Centrifugal Compressor Stage Vaneless Diffusers
Authors: Y. Galerkin, O. Solovieva
Abstract:
Parameters of flow are calculated in vaneless diffusers with relative width 0,014–0,10. Inlet angles of flow and similarity criteria were varied. There is information on flow separation, boundary layer development, configuration of streamlines. Polytrophic efficiency, loss coefficient and recovery coefficient are used to compare effectiveness of diffusers. The sample of optimization of narrow diffuser with conical walls is presented. Three wide diffusers with narrowing walls are compared. The work is made in the R&D laboratory “Gas dynamics of turbo machines” of the TU SPb.
Keywords: Vaneless diffuser, relative width, flow angle, flow separation, loss coefficient, similarity criteria.
