Velocity Field Calculation and Measurement at the Inlet of Centrifugal Compressor
Keywords:
centrifugal compressor, stable operation region, measurement of velocity fieldAbstract
The paper is focused on the possibilities of extending the stable operation region of the centrifugal air compressor by modifying its intake system. For various compressor operation regimes and various shapes of the slots, through which the external air enters the main air in the intake system, the flow velocities at the impeller inlet were measured and calculated.
