  • Compressor wheel with prestressed hub and interference fit insert
    Patent number: 6481970
    Abstract: A compressor wheel (10) for a turbocharger having a prestressed hub (16) with an interference fit insert sized to provide the predetermined stress at zero rotational speed. The predetermined prestress then results in a reduced operating stress level during high speed rotation of the wheel, reducing the potential for reaching failure level stresses in operation and increasing wheel life.
    Type: Grant
