2. Diffuser (automotive) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuser_(automotive)

   Top: Lateral view; the red circles mark the front air dam/splitter and rear diffuser. Bottom: Rear. A diffuser, in an automotive context, is a shaped section of the car rear which improves the car's aerodynamic properties by enhancing the transition between the high-velocity airflow underneath the car and the much slower freestream airflow of the ambient atmosphere.

3. Centrifugal-type supercharger - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal-type_supercharger

   The four main components of a centrifugal supercharger are the volute (compressor housing), diffuser, impeller and transmission. Volutes are typically cast into a form from aluminum rather than other metals due to the combination of strength, weight, and resistance to corrosion. Volutes are then precision machined to match the impeller design. [6]

4. Ground effect (cars) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_effect_(cars)

   The diffuser has an expansion ratio that puts it staggeringly close to the maximum downforce you can get from a diffuser. The car was at the tunnel with pressure tapings added to it, in order to look at the pressure distribution around the car which looks to completely confirm that it works exactly as the designer expected.”, explained Willem ...

   Diagram of a typical gas turbine jet engine. Air is compressed by the compressor blades as it enters the engine, and it is mixed and burned with fuel in the combustion section. The hot exhaust gases provide forward thrust and turn the turbines which drive the compressor blades. 1. Intake 2. Low pressure compression 3. High pressure compression ...

6. Venturi effect - Wikipedia

   The diffuser on an automobile; Race cars utilising ground effect to increase downforce and thus become capable of higher cornering speeds; Foam proportioners used to induct fire fighting foam concentrate into fire protection systems; Trompe air compressors entrain air into a falling column of water; The bolts in some brands of paintball markers

7. Brawn BGP 001 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brawn_BGP_001

   The BGP 001 had a different central channel to its diffuser with the shape of the structure being used to create advanced type of double-decker design. The diffuser's controversial aspect was the hole in the rear which increases the speed of airflow as it heads towards the higher rear venturi section, where it expands and creates more downforce.

9. Diffuser (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuser_(thermodynamics)

   A round diffuser in an HVAC system. Diffusers are very common in heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning systems. [3] Diffusers are used in both all-air and air-water HVAC systems, as part of room air distribution subsystems, and serve several purposes: To deliver both conditioning and ventilating air
