Compressor Fundamentals

Which equipment is the mostly confused with compressor?

• Compressor

• Pump

• Heat exchanger

• Turbine

What was the name of the equipment?

• Valve

• Separator

• Filter

• Compressor

A centrifugal compressor imparts kinetic energy into the airstream by increasing the velocity of the air using a rotating element and then converts this X energy into Y energy in the form of pressure. 

(While writing the answer, use "and"; for example, if your answer is X= Taliya, Y=Almaz, then type Taliya and Almaz)

Choose the correct order of compression cycle

• 1-2': Isothermal

  1-2: Adiabatic

  1-2": Polytropic

• 1-2': Adiabatic

  1-2: Isothermal

  1-2": Polytropic

• 1-2': Polytropic

  1-2: Adiabatic

  1-2": Isothermal

• 1-2': Adiabatic

  1-2: Polytropic

  1-2": Isothermal

It is the ratio of indicated power of compressor to the actual shaft power of compressor. Shaft power of compressor means power required to be given to its driving shaft. It accounts for the loss of power due to friction in moving parts. This sentence is the definition of what efficiency?
