Hi Gerald,
We recently did a CFD on the GR180 comp/diffusor. Graph Above.
The sharp dropoff is where the system chokes.

Hi Andre, very nice work, very honored you used my engine for these calculations. I just do some trial and error and see how it goes ha ha ha! Not sure although how to read you file. I see the choke intruduced when increasing mass flow while I understood that happens when I decrease (restrict) mass flow, hence increase total pressure up to a stage where the diffuser stalls. How should I interpret your graphs?

Best regards,
Gerald
