Abstract
A simple, semi-empirical procedure is presented for computation of subsonic, turbulent, attached, and transitory-stalled flows in straight-walled diffusers with plenum exit. The procedure employs a zonal model while using the concept of a dividing streamline and integral methods for boundary layer calculations on diverging and parallel side walls. The dividing streamline separates the transitory stall zone, having zero mass flow rate, from the effective flow channel. The procedure predicts the pressure as a function of streamwise location with modest computation times, typically a few minutes on a personal computer and can be useful in design calculations.
