| Abstract | In order to improve the operating range of a centrifugal compressor, computer-controlled variable inlet and diffuser vanes were attached to a compressor with a pressure ratio of 2.5. Low-solidity cascade vanes capable of controlling the vane angle up to 0 degrees from the tangential direction were used for the vaned diffuser. The compressor’s overall performance was then tested using a closed-loop test stand. By automatically adjusting the diffuser vanes to the most suitable flow angle, pressure fluctuations caused by the unstable flow in the diffuser during low-flow operation of the centrifugal compressor could be suppressed, and the compressor could be operated nearly up to the shut-off flow rate without any surge. The author experimentally confirmed the critical operating range of both the impeller and diffuser at two different tip speeds and five inlet guide vane angles. Furthermore, a three-dimensional viscous flow-analysis method was applied to the impeller, and a three-dimensional momentum integral analysis method was applied to the diffuser. Then the critical operating ranges obtained in the experiments were qualitatively validated. The operating range of a centrifugal compressor under low-flow conditions, which has until now been limited because of surge, dramatically improved in this study, thereby demonstrating that it may be possible to develop a surge-free centrifugal compressor. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
