| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The centrifugal compressors with vaned diffusers, compared to vaneless diffusers, are prone to unstable phenomena, such as surges and rotating stalls. The operating range of centrifugal compressors with vaned diffuser is limited by surges and rotating stalls, which can potentially cause serious accidents. Especially, the rotating stall can be recognized as a precursor of surge in the impeller or diffuser passage. Therefore, a better understanding of the physics of the rotating stalls leading to a surge is important in predicting of the surge and for the improvement of the stall margin and the control of rotating stall.
This study investigates the evolution process of the diffuser rotating stall in a vaned diffuser of a centrifugal compressor during off-design operation by both experimental and numerical analysis. We revealed the transition characteristics of rotating stalls and the detailed vertical structure of the diffuser stall evolution.
