Abstract:
Cylindrical blade for a rotor of the purely radial type of a centrifugal compressor with a medium flow coefficient, the said blade (1) comprising a first surface (3) of the pressure side and a second surface (5) of the suction side having equal curvature, both having generatrices parallel to the axis (Z) of rotation of the rotor, characterized in that the intersection of each of the said surfaces (3, 5) on a plane (Y, X) of a righthand Cartesian reference system (Y, X, Z), having an axis of ordinates (X) and an axis of abscissae (Y), and an axis (Z) coinciding with the axis of rotation of the rotor, is a curved line (7) defined by a discrete set of points belonging to the said curve (7) whose coordinates (y) on the axis of abscissae and (x) on the axis of ordinates are expressed as a function of the outer radius (R) of the rotor as the ratios y/R and x/R respectively between the values of the coordinate of each point and the value of the said radius (R) of the rotor, the coordinates (y, x) of the said points being variable within a range of Â±0.600 mm on both the abscissa and the ordinate:x/R=0.450; y/R=âˆ’0.397 x/R=0.455; y/R=âˆ’0.391 x/R=0.461; y/R=âˆ’0.387 x/R=0.468; y/R=âˆ’0.384 x/R=0.474; y/R=âˆ’0.381 x/R=0.480; y/R=âˆ’0.377 x/R=0.486; y/R=âˆ’0.374 x/R=0.493; y/R=âˆ’0.371 x/R=0.499; y/R=âˆ’0.368 x/R=0.505; y/R=âˆ’0.365 x/R=0.512; y/R=âˆ’0.362 x/R=0.518; y/R=âˆ’0.359 x/R=0.524; y/R=âˆ’0.356 x/R=0.531; y/R=âˆ’0.353 x/R=0.537; y/R=âˆ’0.350 x/R=0.543; y/R=âˆ’0.347 x/R=0.550; y/R=âˆ’0.344 x/R=0.556; y/R=âˆ’0.341 x/R=0.562; y/R=âˆ’0.337 x/R=0.568; y/R=âˆ’0.334 x/R=0.575; y/R=âˆ’0.331 x/R=0.581; y/R=âˆ’0.328 x/R=0.587; y/R=âˆ’0.321 x/R=0.593; y/R=âˆ’0.321 x/R=0.599; y/R=âˆ’0.318 x/R=0.605; y/R=âˆ’0.314 x/R=0.612; y/R=âˆ’0.311 x/R=0.618; y/R=âˆ’0.307 x/R=0.624; y/R=âˆ’0.303 x/R=0.630; y/R=âˆ’0.300 x/R=0.650; y/R=âˆ’0.287 x/R=0.670; y/R=âˆ’0.275 x/R=0.690; y/R=âˆ’0.261 x/R=0.709; y/R=âˆ’0.248 x/R=0.729; y/R=âˆ’0.234 x/R=0.748; y/R=âˆ’0.220 x/R=0.767; y/R=âˆ’0.205 x/R=0.785; y/R=âˆ’0.190 x/R=0.804; y/R=âˆ’0.175 x/R=0.822; y/R=âˆ’0.160 x/R=0.844; y/R=âˆ’0.140 x/R=0.866; y/R=âˆ’0.120 x/R=0.888; y/R=âˆ’0.100 x/R=0.910; y/R=âˆ’0.079 x/R=0.931; y/R=âˆ’0.058 x/R=0.952; y/R=âˆ’0.037 x/R=0.972; y/R=âˆ’0.015 x/R=0.993; y/R=0.007.
