    • Effects of inlet conditions on centrifugal diffuser performance 

      Deniz, Sabri (Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1997], 1997)
      This report examines the influence of inlet flow conditions, including Mach number, flow angle, blockage, and axial flow non-uniformity, on the performance and operating range of a straight channel centrifugal compressor ...

    • Surge dynamics and unsteady flow phenomena in centrifugal compressors 

      Fink, David Allan (Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1988, 1988)
      Detailed time resolved measurements of centrifugal compressor surge has been obtained on an automotive turbocharger for two very different compression systems one with a large downstream volume and one with a much smaller ...
