A centrifugal compressor of an aircraft engine includes an impeller and a shroud extending circumferentially around the impeller. A bellmouth disposed upstream of the impeller extends circumferentially and includes: a conduit section extending from a first end to an upstream-most location of the bellmouth, the first end of the conduit section secured to the shroud, and a peripheral section extending from the upstream-most location to a second end located radially outwardly of the first end, the peripheral section located radially outwardly of the conduit section and axially overlapping the conduit section. A stiffening member is located on the peripheral section of the bellmouth proximate the second end. The stiffening member extends circumferentially and provides the bellmouth with a dynamic vibration mode outside a range of dynamic vibration modes of the aircraft engine during operation.

A centrifugal fan assembly including fan wheel, a primary inlet bell, a secondary inlet bell, and a flow grid. The primary inlet bell and secondary inlet bell direct air into an inlet of the fan wheel of the centrifugal fan. Also disclosed is a sound reduction assembly for reducing the sound produced by a centrifugal fan or centrifugal compressor. A method of directing air flowing into a centrifugal fan or a centrifugal compressor is also disclosed.

The disclosed technology generally relates to a compressor housing, comprising a first portion configured to house a compressor motor of a centrifugal compressor, a second portion configured to house an inlet housing of the centrifugal compressor, where the inlet housing is configured to receive refrigerant into an impeller assembly of the centrifugal compressor, and at least one refrigerant accumulator upstream of the second portion, the at least one refrigerant accumulator configured to accumulate liquid refrigerant.

A neck fan includes an arc-shaped shell configured to hang around user's neck and at least four fan assemblies arranged in the shell. The shell includes a first part and a second part. Each of the first part and the second part defines an accommodating space, air inlets and air outlets communicated with the accommodating space, at least one partition is arranged in the accommodating space and configured to divide the accommodating space into at least two accommodating parts arranged along an extension direction of the shell. Each of the fan assemblies is arranged in one of the at least two accommodating parts and is configured to direct air into the one of the at least two accommodating parts through corresponding air inlets and to direct air out of the one of the at least two accommodating parts through corresponding air outlets.

A compressor has a stator assembly, a rotor assembly, and a housing within which the stator assembly and the rotor assembly are located. The housing has a first end, a second end, and an air inlet disposed between the first and second ends. The compressor has a flow guide disposed within the air inlet. The flow guide is configured to split air flowing through the air inlet in use into a first airflow toward the first end of the housing and a second airflow toward the second end of the housing.

A turbine section of a turbomachine includes a housing that houses and supports the rotating group for rotation about an axis. The housing defines a circumferential inlet passage that extends about the axis. The housing defines a turbine wheel upstream area that is disposed downstream of the circumferential inlet passage and upstream of the turbine wheel. The housing defines an outlet that is downstream of the turbine wheel. Furthermore, the turbine section includes a first flow path that extends from the circumferential inlet passage, through the turbine wheel upstream area, across the turbine wheel, to the outlet. Moreover, the turbine section includes a recirculation flow path that extends from the circumferential inlet passage, through the turbine wheel upstream area, and back to the circumferential inlet passage.

A centrifugal heat dissipation fan including a housing and an impeller is provided. The housing has at least one flow inlet. The impeller assembled in the housing and rotating about an axial direction includes a hub and a plurality blades disposed around the hub. The flow inlet is located in the axial direction and faces the hub. Each of the blades has a wing tab next to the flow inlet, and the wing tab extends from a main surface of the blade to another blade. The wing tab has an inclined surface facing toward a periphery of the flow inlet along a radial direction of the impeller.

A neck fan includes an arc-shaped housing configured to hang around user's neck and at least four fan assemblies arranged in the housing. The housing includes a first part and a second part. Each of the first part and the second part defines an accommodating space, air inlets and air outlets communicated with the accommodating space, at least one partition is arranged in the accommodating space and configured to divide the accommodating space into at least two accommodating parts arranged along an extension direction of the housing. Each of the fan assemblies is arranged in one of the at least two accommodating parts and is configured to direct air into the one of the at least two accommodating parts through corresponding air inlets and to direct air out of the one of the at least two accommodating parts through corresponding air outlets.

Disclosed is an cabin air compressor (CAC), having a CAC inlet defining a bleed inlet and has a bleed inlet aperture that circumferentially extends about the CAC inlet to define a bleed inlet forward end and a bleed inlet aft end; and a bleed duct that extends from a bleed duct inlet located at the CAC inlet to a bleed duct outlet located at a CAC motor section and is fluidly connected to the bleed inlet; and a scoop defining a scoop aft end connected to the bleed inlet aft end, and a scoop body extending toward a case forward end of the case to a scoop forward end, wherein the scoop is frustoconical and converges toward the case forward end to provide a radial inlet gap between the scoop forward end and the bleed inlet forward end.

A turbomachine housing, in particular of a radial turbomachine which transfers technical work to a process fluid or from a process fluid, includes: an opening extending along an axis, for the axial feed-through of a shaft extending along said axis; a contact surface extending along a circumferential direction with respect to the axis, for contact with a housing jacket of the turbomachine housing. A flow line provided as an inflow or outflow of the process fluid is designed as an integral part of the cover.
