ABSTRACT:
A diffuser apparatus for use in connection with gas turbines which will markedly increase the fuel efficiency of the turbine. The apparatus is specially designed for use with a gas turbine having both inner and outer walls on which a boundary layer develops and can become detached. The apparatus includes a strategically located capture scoop for capturing a portion of the high velocity gas stream of the gas turbine in the area of maximum velocity and redirecting it through a plurality of spaced-apart injector slots provided in both the inner and outer walls of a shroud which is positioned relative to the turbine in a manner to capture the high velocity gas stream generated by the blades of the turbine.
