Abstract

Un compresseur centrifuge (10) comprend une roue de compresseur (49), un moteur (31) comportant un rotor (33), et un palier radial (51) qui supporte le rotor. Un trajet axial (65) s'étendant à l'intérieur du rotor comporte une entrée (71) communiquant avec un orifice d'admission (22). Un trajet radial (75) amène le trajet axial et une chambre de moteur (18) à communiquer l'un avec l'autre. Un trajet d'écoulement de diffuseur (76) est configuré de telle sorte que l'air introduit dans la chambre de moteur depuis le trajet radial est mis sous pression, et l'air sous pression refroidit le palier radial. Dans une partie du trajet axial, positionnée davantage adjacente à l'entrée qu'une surface arrière (49a) de la roue de compresseur dans le trajet axial, le trajet axial présente un trajet de diamètre accru (66) dont le diamètre augmente progressivement à distance de l'entrée.
