Abstract:
A compressor has a hub-side wall of a hub-side wall plate, a shroud-side wall that faces the hub-side wall and forms a diffuser path between the shroud-side wall and the hub-side wall, vanes that protrude from the hub-side wall plate into the diffuser path, and an actuator capable of changing the distance between the vanes and the shroud-side wall in accordance with a flow rate of air in the diffuser path. Adjacent ones of the adjacent vanes do not overlap with each other when viewed from a center axis of the compressor. When the actuator maximizes the distance between the vanes and the shroud-side wall, the distance between the vanes and the shroud-side wall is smaller than the distance between the hub-side wall and areas of the shroud-side wall that face the vanes.
