Abstract
A centrifugal rotary machine includes: an impeller which includes a disk, blades, and a cover; and a sealing device which seals the gap, in which the casing includes an end wall surface which defines a radial flow path between the end wall surface and a cover end surface, an inlet-side inner peripheral surface which is connected to a radially inner side of the end wall surface and extends to the one side in the axial direction so as to define an introduction flow path of a fluid to the impeller, and a circulation flow path which is formed in the casing and is open to an end portion on a radially outer side of the end wall surface and the inlet-side inner peripheral surface to cause the radial flow path and the introduction flow path to communicate with each other.
