The design features of a centrifugal compressor must guarantee high performance and a wide operating range. The ported shroud was developed specifically to extend the operating limit. It is a passive flow control device based on a cavity for flow recirculation to avoid blade passage blocking in near surge conditions. A CFD simulation campaign...

An important aspect in the glass production industry is related to the heat recovery of the combustion gases. It is usually obtained throughout the use of well-tested technologies, such as regenerative towers with refractory material. For an effective heat recovery, a good distribution of the flow rate at the entrance of the chambers is...
