To provide a turbo machine having a mixed-flow stage, and its method.
There are provided a method for imparting energy to a multi-phase fluid, and the turbo machine. The turbo machine includes a casing having an inlet and an outlet, an axial stage portion including at least one axial stage, a mixed-flow stage portion including at least one mixed-flow stage which is fluid-connected to the axial stage portion, and a centrifugal stage portion including at least one centrifugal stage which is fluid-connected to the mixed-flow stage portion. The axial stage is defined by an angle having a value between 0° to 5° between an axial impeller outlet flow and an axial line parallel with a rotating axial line of a shaft, the mixed-flow stage is defined by an angle having a value between 5° to 80°, and the centrifugal stage is defined by an angle having a value between 80° to 90°.
