Abstract

A refrigerant compressor assembly (20A, 20B, 20C) includes an axial compressor (22B, 22C, 22) that includes at least one axial stage. A downstream compressor (24) is located fluidly downstream of the axial compressor (22B, 22C, 22) and includes one of a mixed-flow impeller (46) or a centrifugal impeller (96). At least one motor (26, 27) is in driving engagement with at least one of the axial compressor (22B, 22C, 22) and the downstream compressor (24).
