A manifold for deflecting the flow of a medium flowing through the manifold from an inlet side of the manifold to an outlet side of the manifold includes: the inlet side; and a wall at least partially defining and thereby restricting a flow volume of the manifold, the wall including an inside wall section that is curved and an outside wall section that is curved, the inside wall section including a first radius of curvature, the outside wall section including a second radius of curvature that is larger than the first radius of curvature, the inside wall section including a formed-in section which is formed into the flow volume and which is drawn in a direction of flow of the medium and thus towards the outlet side.

Manifold, a turbomachine including such a manifold, a turbocharger including such a turbomachine, and an internal combustion engine including such a manifold

A manifold for deflecting a flow of a medium flowing through the manifold from an inlet side of the manifold to an outlet side of the manifold includes: the inlet side; a wall at least partially defining and thereby restricting a flow volume of the manifold; and a diffuser section arranged centrally in the flow volume on the inlet side, the diffuser being a single component with the wall.

Intake manifold element () having a tubular section () through which a first fluid (A) can flow in a proposed flow direction (A') via a flow channel () from an inlet () to an outlet () of the same, said tubular section being provided for arrangement on a compressor inlet () of a turbocharger, characterized in that the flow channel () has a nozzle-shaped design, wherein its cross-section which the fluid can flow through is tapered in the flow direction (A&#x2032;), wherein the tubular section () forms a chamber () adjacent to the nozzle-shaped flow channel () which serves as flow path from an inlet () to an outlet () for the aspiration of a second fluid (B), the pressure level of said chamber on the inlet () being dependent on the pressure level of the first fluid (A) on the outlet () of the flow channel () via communicating outlets () of the chamber () and the flow channel ().
