Download or read book Performance Comparison of Two Deep Inducers as Separate Components and in Combination with an Impeller written by William K. Ritter and published by . This book was released on 1945 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two deep inducers were tested as separate components and in combination with an impeller as a part of an investigation to correlated design requirements of inducers and impellers. The inducers were designed to impart solid-body, or wheel, rotation to the entering air at constant angular acceleration along the axial depth. The axial depths were 3.00 inches and 2.12 inches. The design load coefficients were 0.24 cubic foot per revolution for the 2.00-inch inducer and 0.35 cubic foot per revolution for the 2.12-inch inducer. The impeller had straight radial blades and a ratio of discharge to inlet areas of 0.715 with uniform change of area along the passage. The inlet diameters of the 24-blade impeller and inducers were 8 inches and the impeller diameter was 12 inches.
