ABSTRACT:
Airflow exiting a centrifugal compressor is diffused in multiple shaped passages tangential to the compressor impeller dumped into a plenum to reduce its Mach number and then directed through deswirl vanes to the entrance of a combustor. Deswirl at reduced Mach number significantly reduces pressure losses resulting in reduced complexity and manufacturing cost for the diffuser deswirl system.
