Abstract:
An impeller wheel assembly for a radial rotating machine, comprises a bladed hub portion of an impeller wheel, with a first radially outward facing, fluid deflecting surface having a curvature profile designed to deflect an axial fluid flow into a radial centrifugal flow, and comprising a deflector portion with a second radially outward facing, fluid deflecting surface. The second radially outward facing surface has a curvature profile designed to deflect a radial centripetal fluid flow into an axial fluid flow.
