摘要：The Supercritical Carbon Dioxide (SCO2) Brayton cycle has been getting more and more attentions all over the world in recent years for its high cycle efficiency and compact components. The compressor is one of the most important components in the cycle. Different from traditional working fluid, SCO2 has a risk of condensation at the impeller inlet because of the particular properties near the critical point. In order to determine the possibility of the condensation, a concept called "Condensation Margin (CM)" suited for SCO2 is introduced. It is associated with the total and saturated thermodynamic conditions. A design parameter called velocity ratio at the impeller inlet (IVR) is defined to control the state of working fluid at impeller inlet based on CM. In terms of different constraints and design requirements, such as impeller efficiency, operating range and processing technic, especially in small size cases, the design parameters at the impeller outlet are explored by establishing a function of outlet width, the number of blades, rotating speed, outlet tangential velocity coefficient and outlet meridional velocity coefficient. A preliminary design result of a low-flow-coefficient SCO2 centrifugal compressor is presented as an example of the application of the design parameters exploration results; then CFD simulation is performed, and consistent results are obtained compared with exploration results.
