A vaneless diffuser is created by an outlet diffuser element and a spaced plate to receive air drawn by the impeller and discharge air expandably and outwardly in a direction perpendicular thereto. The plate, outlet diffuser element and orifice member in various embodiments are selectively attached to the blade to rotate therewith or be stationary in relation thereto.
