Abstract
A radial compressor has a compressor housing, a rotatably supported compressor shaft in the compressor housing, at least one compressor impeller arranged on the compressor shaft, and a fluid discharge element arranged downstream of a last compressor impeller in a fluid path in the compressor housing and which has a predetermined extension in radial direction and in axial direction of the radial compressor, wherein the fluid discharge element has a fluid passage for guiding fluid that is accelerated by the last compressor impeller out of the compressor housing, which fluid passage extends in a circumferential direction by a predetermined angular amount, and wherein the fluid discharge element is formed of material having a defined material structure, and the fluid passage is formed as a subsequently introduced spatial interruption in a material cohesion of the material structure. A method of producing the radial compressor is also disclosed.
