What is Experimental Determination of Prewhirl Effects on Centrifugal Compressor Internal Aerodynamics about?
A series of experiments are performed to Investigate and quantify the effects of flow rate and Inlet prewhirl on the fundamental fluid mechanics of mixed flow centrifugal compressors. This Is accomplished utilizing a low speed, moderate scale, mixed flow research centrifugal compressor. Extensive Instrumentation of the flow path, Including the Impeller and exit vaned radial diffuser, enables the Internal flow conditions to be measured In considerable detail. In particular, data are acquired and analyzed over a range of mass flow rates, with Inlet guide vane angles varied from -15 to +45 degrees and the rotational speed and exit diffuser vane angles held constant. The static pressure distributions in the inlet and on the Impeller blades and exit diffuser vanes as well as the overall pressure and temperature rise and mass flow rate are measured and analyzed at each operating point to determine the overall performance and efficiency as well as the detailed aerodynamics.
