Low-speed tests have been made to investigate the
performance of three annular diffusers having centre bodies
of uniform diameter and conically diverging outer walls. The
diffusers had a common area ratio of 2.0 : 1, an inlet radius
ratio of 0.833, and non-dimensional lengths of 5.0, 7.5 and
10.0 respectively. The tests were carried out with fully
developed flow at inlet; the inlet conditions were obtained
by natural development in a long annular entry length. [Continues.]
