Abstract

Diffuser is an important fluid-mechanical equipment to convert kinetic energy into pressure energy. Many of the experimental and theoretical researches have been done in a diffuser but the understanding of energy transfer and detailed mechanism of energy dissipation is unclear. In this study, computations were performed using a numerical method with SIMPLE algorithm for conical diffuser with various diffuser angles and diffuser lengths. Also, we investigated the pressure recovery coefficient in conical diffuser by inserting strut. In this paper, we showed that the strut can cause a rising pressure recovery.
