Provided is a radial diffuser that includes a housing, a plurality of diffuser vanes, and a plurality of deswirl vanes and at least one vane extension providing a service routing. Each of the vane extensions is disposed after a radial section and may extend into or through a transition and into the deswirl cascade. At least a portion of the vane extensions include a service passage extending therethrough. Each service passage is configured to allow a service conduit to extend therethrough without adversely crossing either a diffusion flow passage or a transition flow passage.

A personal entertainment respiratory apparatus provides air to a user to provide a fully immersive entertainment experience. The personal entertainment system may comprise a flow generator for providing the flow of air. A personal spatial respiratory interface may be coupled to the flow generator. The personal spatial respiratory interface may comprise an outlet for the flow generator. The personal spatial respiratory interface may further be configured to direct the flow of air within an ambient breathing proximity of a user. The personal entertainment respiratory apparatus may further comprise a controller and a sensory particle dispenser. The controller and sensory particle dispenser may be configured to selectively activate release of a sensory particle from the dispenser into the directed flow of air in response to an entertainment triggering signal.

A heat dissipation fan includes a base plate, a frame formed on a side of the base plate, a stator received sin the frame, and a rotor below the stator and connected with the stator. The heat dissipation fan also has an air inlet, a first air outlet and a second air outlet. The air inlet is communicated with the first air outlet and the second air outlet. An angle is defined between each of the first air outlet and the second air outlet.

A blisk fan is provided for a turbine engine propulsion system. The blisk fan includes a hub configured to rotate about a rotational axis at a maximum rotational speed, and a plurality of blades extending radially outward from the hub to define a fan leading edge tip diameter. Each of the blades has a first vibratory mode at a natural frequency, which is greater than a first fan order and less than a second fan order at the maximum rotational speed. The compression system preferably has a balance factor of the compression system between 1.9 and 3.2.

A system is provided. The system includes a first medium at a first pressure, a second medium at a second pressure, and a medium conditioning sub-system. The medium conditioning sub-system includes a compressor, a first heat exchanger, a second heat exchanger, and a turbine. The turbine receives the first medium and the second medium.

A system for controlling the clearance distance between an impeller blade tip of a centrifugal compressor and a radially inner surface of an impeller shroud in a turbine engine. The system comprises a high pressure air source, an air piston mounted between an engine casing and the shroud and adapted to receive high pressure air from the high pressure air source, a mounting arm coupling the shroud and air piston, and a slidable coupling adapted to allow axial movement of the shroud and joining the shroud to an axial member.

A radial compressor for a compressor arrangement comprising the radial compressor and an axial compressor includes an inlet flow channel bounded by a radially inner hub contour and a radially outer housing contour, in which inlet guide blades are arranged. Via the inlet flow channel a medium to be compressed is supplied to an impeller having moving blades. The inlet flow channel runs diagonally to an axis of rotation of the impeller.

A compressor includes a housing. An impeller is located within the housing and rotatable about an impeller axis in a first rotational direction. A rotor section is rotatable about the impeller axis in a second rotational direction opposite the first rotational direction.

The invention discloses a high-transmission-ratio suspension shaft centrifugal supercharger which comprises a transmission unit, a fan supercharging unit and a cooling unit; the transmission unit is composed of a belt wheel, a planetary gear mechanism, a friction wheel group and a suspension mainshaft, the planetary gear mechanism comprises a sun gear and a planetary gear both installed in a gearbox, the sun gear and the belt wheel are in coaxial installation and rotate together, the planetary gears are distributed at the periphery of the sun gear in a 120 degree symmetric way and are meshed with and follow up the sun gear; the friction wheel group comprises friction wheels arranged in a sealed box and arranged coaxially with corresponding planetary gears; the suspension mainshaft generates contact friction with surfaces of the friction wheels and is driven to rotate together with the friction wheels; the cooling unit is used to pump out high-temperature lubricating oil in the gearbox and the sealed box, and lubricating oil is returned after cooling is performed. According to the invention, the supercharger is substantially improved in transmission precision and speed increasing ratio at a high speed range, and also possesses characteristics of long safe life, convenience for mounting, good heat dispersion performance, low noise and the like.

A mixed-flow compressor includes an impeller attached to a shaft and rotatable about a shaft axis. A vaneless diffuser is located axially downstream of the impeller and has a converging portion and a diverging portion. A vaned diffuser is located axially downstream of the vaneless diffuser.
