Description

Report presenting an investigation of an axial-discharge impeller in combination with a 16-vaned supersonic diffuser cascade over a range of flow conditions at equivalent tip speeds varying from 800 to 1600 feet per second. Results regarding the overall performance of the combination, starting of diffuser cascade, use of flow bleedoff to aid starting, radial distribution of flow angle, flow characteristics within diffuser, and efficiency of diffuser cascade are provided.
