Numerical Simulation on the Influence of Inlet Flow Characteristics on the Performance of a Centrifugal Compressor

Numerical Simulation on the Influence of Inlet Flow Characteristics on the Performance of a Centrifugal Compressor

Although inlet bent pipes are usually adopted due to limited installation space, the influences of different bend pipes on the inlet flow characteristics and performance of centrifugal compressors are still unclear. The numerical simulation of a centrifugal compressor is established and validated by...
