Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017140852A1] The duct cross-section in the diffuser of a radial-flow compressor is significantly larger in the inlet region of the diffuser section. This increases the space available to the flow upstream of the actual diffusor duct, resulting in a rapid deceleration and thus a rapid increase in pressure. The flow velocity is thus reduced in the downstream components of the compressor and flow losses are reduced accordingly.
