Abstract:
A centrifugal compressor includes: an impeller; a main flow passage which receives the impeller and extends in a rotation axis direction of the impeller; an auxiliary flow passage which includes an upstream communication portion communicating to the main flow passage and a downstream communication portion communicating to the main flow passage at closer to the impeller than the upstream communication portion, and extends in a rotation direction of the impeller; a plurality of opening/closing portions which each have an opening portion and are arranged in the auxiliary flow passage; and a drive unit configured to move at least one of the plurality of opening/closing portions in the rotation direction.
