Radial vaned diffusion system with integral service routings
A radial diffuser comprises a housing, a plurality of diffuser vanes, and a plurality of integral service vanes. The housing includes an air inlet and an air outlet, and defines a radial section extending radially outward from the air inlet, an axial section extending axially to the air outlet, and...

Zusammenfassung: | A radial diffuser comprises a housing, a plurality of diffuser vanes, and a plurality of integral service vanes. The housing includes an air inlet and an air outlet, and defines a radial section extending radially outward from the air inlet, an axial section extending axially to the air outlet, and a transition including a bend and extending between the radial and axial sections. The diffuser vanes are coupled to the housing, and are disposed in, and define diffusion flow passages. The integral service vanes are coupled to the housing, extend around the bend, and define transition flow passages, each in fluid communication with at least one diffusion flow passage. At least some of the integral service vanes include a service passage extending therethrough and configured to allow a service conduit to extend therethrough without crossing either a diffusion flow passage or a transition flow passage. |
