Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3196477A1] A centrifugal impeller capable of suppressing the development of a boundary layer and thus fulfilling its performance sufficiently, and a centrifugal compressor are provided. The impeller includes a hub 20, a shroud 21, and a plurality of blades 22 disposed between the hub 20 and the shroud 21 and blows out fluid in a radial direction by the rotation of a rotary shaft fixed to the hub 20. When an angle made by a projection line 33 that is obtained by projecting a camber line 32 of the blade 22 onto a predetermined meridional cross section and the camber line 32 is defined as an inclination angle ³¸ and an inclination in a direction opposite to a rotating direction of the rotary shaft is defined to be positive, the blade 22 is formed in such a manner that the inclination angle ³¸ of a leading edge 22A is zero or positive on the hub 20 side and gradually increasing toward the shroud 21 and the inclination angle is gradually decreasing from the leading edge toward a trailing edge in a flow direction of the fluid.
