Abstract:
A centrifugal compressor is provided with a return vane including a suction surface facing a front side in a rotation direction of a rotation shaft and a pressure surface facing a rear side. A casing includes a hub side wall surface and a shroud side wall surface that form a placement region of the return vane in the straight flow path, and an intermediate suction port formed on the shroud side wall surface, the intermediate suction port ejecting fluid guided from outside toward the straight flow path; and inside the return vane, an internal flow path is formed in which one end communicates with the intermediate suction port and another end is an outlet port that opens to the suction surface of the return vane.
