Design and performance of two-dimensional diffusers for centrifugal compressors

The deceleration of flowing fluids, or diffusion as it is widely known, is a process of primary importance, whereby some of the kinetic energy is converted into static pressure rise. Hence, in the case of subsonic flows, the area of a diffusing passage increases in the direction of the flow. Most co...
