The transonic flow in a diffuser of a centrifugal compressor with high pressure ratio has been analyzed by a numerical procedure. The method consists of an inviscid calculation of the pressure field in the vaned diffuser and of a determination of the boundary layer flow along the blades. The diffuser has been equipped with curved vanes, and only the flow through one channel is considered. The two-dimensional pressure distribution has been calculated by a time-dependent finite difference scheme. The boundary layer flow has been determined by different integral methods with special attention concerning the shock-boundary-layer interaction. Finally, the numerical results are compared with experiments, and the agreement is satisfactory.

In this paper we study a problem of the boundary layer flow through a porous media in the presence of heat transfer. Here we consider high porosity bounded by a semi-infinite horizontal plate. The main aim of this study is to point out local similarity transformations for the boundary layer flow, through a homogeneous porous medium. Here we applying finite difference schemes to find out the numerical solutions of the problem. The free stream velocity and the temperature far away from the plate are exponential function of variables.
