Axial flow turbomachinery having an impeller with a plurality of contoured blades mounted within a diffuser throat and about a central rotatable hub. This blade shape is defined by the ratio of the blade root and tip chords to the minimum midsection blade chord, which is between about 1.25 and about 2.25. The ratio of blade pitch at the root and tip sections as compared with the blade midsection pitch is preferably between about 1.0 and about 1.4.
