Abstract
Increases on mass flow rates of modern radial process compressors result on larger machine components. In particular, the dimensions of the outlet volutes increase strongly, resulting in disproportionately large machines whose technical feasibility is restricted due to technological and economical reasons. A resulting aim is to design modern radial compressors much more compact, while improving the efficiency and the pressure ratio. Therefore, the present experimental investigation addresses the compressor behaviour for reduced dimensions of rectangular volutes. Furthermore, the experimental setups are numerically modelled and different operating points are simulated with a commercial CFD-Code. A rectangular, external reference volute is equipped with differently shaped blockage-inlays and the global compressor parameters are measured for all variants. Additionally, the pressure and velocity distributions of the local flow field are determined experimentally for varying mass flow ratios at different circumferentially distributed volute layers. The decrease of the volute cross-section results in a reduction of the compressor map width especially at high mass flow rates. Recommendations are given for designing compact volutes of large radial compressors.
