On the Effect of Side Clearance in the Vaned Diffuser of a Centrifugal Compressor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Environmental and regulatory pressures have prompted original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to explore highly boosted internal combustion (IC) engines as a means to minimize toxic air pollutants and meet strict legislative ...
Design and Performance Analysis of Mixed Flow Turbine Rotors With Extended Blade Chord
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Mixed flow turbines offer additional design freedom compared with conventional radial turbines. This is useful in the automotive turbocharger application to reduce rotor inertia, which can be very beneficial for the transient ...
Characterizing the Influence of Impeller Exit Recirculation on Centrifugal Compressor Work Input
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Impeller recirculation is a loss which has long been considered in one-dimensional (1D) modeling; however, the full extent of its impact on stage performance has not been analyzed. Recirculation has traditionally been ...
Numerical and Experimental Investigation of the Impact of Mixed Flow Turbine Inlet Cone Angle and Inlet Blade Angle
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Mixed flow turbines (MFTs) offer potential benefits for turbocharged engines when considering off-design performance and engine transient behavior. Although the performance and use of MFTs are described in the literature, ...
A Three-Zone Modeling Approach for Centrifugal Compressor Slip Factor Prediction
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Accurate estimation of slip factor is of paramount importance to ensure centrifugal compressor work input is adequately predicted during the preliminary design process. However, variations in the flow field at impeller ...
