Centrifugal compressors volute

In a centrifugal compressor, air or gas at atmospheric pressure enters the eye of the impeller. As the impeller rotates, the gas is accelerated by the rotating element within the confined space that is created by the volute of the compressor s casing. The gas is compressed as more gas is forced into the volute by the impeller blades. The pressure of the gas increases as it is pushed through the reduced free space within the volute. [Pg.555]

Stationary parts of a multistage centrifugal compressor include inlet guide vane, diaphragms, and casing. They form the various gas passages in a compressor inlet channel, diffusers, return bends, return channels, and discharge volute. [Pg.45]
