But how exactly does a centrifugal supercharger work? A centrifugal supercharger looks a lot like a turbocharger on the compressor side, and that's no coincidence.

To address this, researchers have explored passive flow control methods, with the ported shroud emerging as a critical innovation for extending compressor operability.

The compressor’s aerodynamics: The design of a centrifugal chiller’s compressor is also critical to low-lift performance. That’s because a centrifugal compressor operates most efficiently when the tip ...
