Abstract
There is provided a compressor device in which resonance in a circulating channel is reduced so that an increase in noise generated from the compressor device is prevented. The compressor device includes: a plurality of blades rotated about a rotation axis; an air inlet extending along the rotation axis and introducing air to the blades; a circulating channel disposed on a circumference centered on the rotation axis and communicating between the air inlet and the shroud of the blades; and a strut extending radially centered on the rotation axis and dividing the circulating channel. Resonance frequencies determined from circumferential lengths in the circulating channels divided by the strut are higher than a noise frequency determined from the rotational speed of the blades and the number of blades.
