Abstract
The invention relates to a stabilizer channel having an annular stabilizer chamber which encloses a main flow channel in the intake region of a compressor wheel and is delimited from the main flow channel by an annular bridge. The annular stabilizer channel is connected to the main flow channel via a downstream flow inlet and an upstream flow outlet. At least one separating element (T) is arranged in at least one of the flow inlet and the flow outlet, with the result that an inflow into the annular stabilizer chamber and/or an outflow out of the annular stabilizer chamber are/is split transversely with respect to the main flow direction of the main flow channel. At least one flow guiding element is arranged in at least one of the flow inlet and the flow outlet.
