Zusammenfassung:In one aspect of the present disclosure, a compressor wheel is disclosed that includes a body, a plurality of blades, and one or more supports. The supports add strength to the compressor wheel and may be configured as ribs, for example. The body has a first face (e.g., an outer or front face), which may include the blades, and a second face (e.g. an inner or rear face), which may include the supports. The supports may include an arcuate configuration curving forward in a direction of rotation of the compressor wheel.
