Ventilation of a downstream cavity of an impeller of a centrifugal compressor

摘要

A system for ventilating a downstream cavity of an impeller of a centrifugal compressor in a turbomachine, this cavity being delimited by the downstream face of the impeller and by an annular end-piece of a diffuser and being ventilated by taking air from the outlet of the compressor, the system comprising at least one annular deflector mounted in this cavity in order to oppose the rise of hot air along the downstream face of the impeller and in order to cause the diverted hot air to be driven by the air taken from the outlet of the compressor.
