Research paper thumbnail of Effect of impeller geometry on performance characteristics of centrifugal compressor

Their extensive usage is due to their smooth operation and high reliability compared to other other compressor types. One of the main characteristics of these turbomachines is their performance curve, which is an important criterion for selecting the appropriate compressor for a desired working condition. In the presented article, the effect of impeller's geometry on performance curve and other compressors characteristics is numerically investigated. The 3D CFD code is used to achieve the performance curves that are dedicated to each geometrical configuration. The results indicate that some of the selected geometrical parameters have a significant effect on performance curve margins. Increasing the shroud angle moves the surge point to the higher flow coefficients, while the pressure ratio remains constant and increasing the blade's trailing edge angle, leads to increase in pressure ratio.

In the present work fully developed falling film flow in the presence of conduction pumps has been experimentally investigated. Two different arrangements were selected and Transformer oil was used. Results indicated that, applying electric field would decrease thickness of falling film in wide range of Re number. The variation of wave's frequency and velocity regarding to Re number is also presented and compared for arrangements. Conduction pumps increased wave's frequency at low Re numbers conversely decreased it at high Re numbers.
