January 24, 2011 – Motor Sich PJSC, Zaporozhye, Ukraine, and Concepts NREC, Wilder, Vermont, USA are pleased to announce the achievement of  a successful outcome  in their design  collaboration on a high pressure centrifugal compressor for a helicopter gas turbine engine.  Motor Sich designed the centrifugal compressor stage using Concepts NREC’s compressor design/analysis software and technical assistance. The compressor has undergone several rounds of development testing in Motor Sich’s test facilities for a number of different diffuser configurations.

The latest compressor design achieved target performance levels, including a design pressure ratio of 11.5 and  a maximum stage efficiency of  over 80%. As stated by Motor Sich,   the achieved compressor performance will allow significant  time savings in the certification cycle and flight testing of the engine.  Motor Sich and Concepts NREC are expanding collaboration to other turbomachinery design projects, including multistage axial and radial stages.
