Abstract
A method for predicting the performance of annular diffusere with swirled flow at inlet is presented. The method is based on the assumptions of one-dimensional potential flow using a frictional coefficient parameter to account for friction losses. Theoretical predictions are in good agreement with available experimental data for a variety of annular diffuser geometries. In addition a computer program has been developed, allowing the present analytical technique to be readily applied to the design of any annular diffuser with swirled flow at inlet.
