General information - Compressor
The compressor test case is very similar to the turbine case. The computational geometry of radial compressor is extracted from the turbocharger:

The input for this methodology is consisting of surface geometry in (.STL) file format13.1. Original files can be found in directory tutorials/meshFactory/STL. STL model can be viewed in paraview, opening following files:
- c-housing.stl
- c-wheel_mucked.stl
- c-back.stl
- shaft.stl
