High-pressure ratio centrifugal compressors? diffusers face challenges from high-velocity, non-uniform flow at the impeller outlet, decreasing efficiency and stall margin. To address this, this paper presents a novel vaned diffuser passage design method ...

The surge limit of centrifugal compressors is a key parameter in the design process of modern turbochargers. Numerical methods like steady-state simulations are state-of-the-art methods for predicting the performance of the centrifugal compressor. In con...

In centrifugal compressors, Mild Surge (MS) leads to unstable operation. Previous experimental work on a centrifugal compressor designed and built by Safran Helicopter Engines (SafranHE) showed that MS corresponds to the pulsation of an alternate stall p...

With an increase in fluid densities in centrifugal compressors, fluid-structure interaction and coupled acoustoelastic modes receive growing attention to avoid machine failure. Besides the vibrational behavior of the impeller, acoustic modes building up ...

Variable inlet guide vanes (VIGVs) are most commonly used as the major control unit of integrally geared centrifugal compressors (IGCCs). In order to enhance the efficient operating range of the compressor, the loss mechanisms and utilization limits of s...
