Abstract

A turbine including a radial compressor having radial blades, with the compressor supplying side channel compressors arranged at its circumference and having chamber blades. To increase the efficiency, the chamber blades and the radial blades are curved in opposite directions, with the chamber blades and radial blades having a curvature transition point at their transition area, and the blades, in the transition area, are inclined by an identical angle of less than 30.degree. and, for example, 15.degree. relative to a circumferential tangent in the transition area.
