Abstract
A radial compressor rotor, especially for static imbalance of a dual flow radial compressor impeller, having back-to-back blades in a gas turbine engine, is provided with at least one axial through hole in the rotor hub. The axial hole is filled in by an imbalance compensating insert which covers the ends of the hole between neighboring radial blade contour surfaces in an aerodynamically flush manner. The density and density distribution of the material of the insert is selected relative to the density and mass concentration of the material of the compressor impeller to achieve the desired imbalance compensating effect.
