The overall isothermal efficiency of the compressor is defined as the ratio of
-
The minimum work required for a three stage reciprocating air compressor is __________ the work required for each stage.
-
For a multi-stage compressor, the polytropic efficiency is constant throughout for all the stages.
-
In a high pressure compressor, the delivery pressure is
-
When the outlet angle from the rotor of a centrifugal compressor is more than 90°, then the blades are said to be
-
In axial flow compressors, the flow of air is parallel to the axis of compressor.
-
The ratio of the isothermal power to the shaft power or brake power of the motor or engine required to drive the compressor is called overall isothermal efficiency.
-
In a double acting compressor, the air is compressed
-
In a centrifugal compressor, the flow of air is __________ to the axis of compressor.
A.
work required to compress the air isothermally to the actual work required to compress the air for the same pressure ratio
|
B.
isothermal power to the shaft power or B.P. of the motor or engine required to drive the compressor
|
C.
volume of free air delivery per stroke to the swept volume of the piston
|
D.
isentropic power to the power required to drive the compressor
