At any point in the flow of air through the impeller the centripetal acceleration is obtained by a pressure head so that the static pressure of the air increases from the eye to the tip of the impeller. The remainder of the static pressure rise is obtained in the diffuser, where the very high velocity of air leaving the impeller tip is reduced to almost the velocity with which the air enters the impeller eye. &#8211; Nptel <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.nptel.ac.in\/content\/storage2\/courses\/112104117\/chapter_4\/4_4a.html#:~:text=The%20remainder%20of%20the%20static,is%20reduced%20to%20almost%20the\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.nptel.ac.in\/content\/storage2\/courses\/112104117\/chapter_4\/4_4a.html#:~:text=The%20remainder%20of%20the%20static,is%20reduced%20to%20almost%20the\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How it works:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">The impeller imparts high kinetic energy to the air.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">The diffuser gradually increases in cross-sectional area, slowing down the air while increasing its pressure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">This process converts the air&#8217;s kinetic energy into pressure energy, which is essential for efficient engine combustion. \u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.studysmarter.co.uk\/explanations\/engineering\/engineering-thermodynamics\/diffuser\/#:~:text=In%20a%20diffuser%2C%20the%20temperature,a%20rise%20in%20temperature%20due\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.studysmarter.co.uk\/explanations\/engineering\/engineering-thermodynamics\/diffuser\/#:~:text=In%20a%20diffuser%2C%20the%20temperature,a%20rise%20in%20temperature%20due\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">1.
