Centrifugal compressors, sometimes called impeller compressors or radial compressors, are a sub-class of dynamic axisymmetric work-absorbing turbomachinery...

compared with screw and centrifugal compressors, scroll compressors have lower efficiencies and smaller capacities. A diaphragm compressor (also known as a membrane...

Compressor surge is a form of aerodynamic instability in axial compressors or centrifugal compressors. The term describes violent air flow oscillating...

differs from other rotating compressors such as centrifugal compressor, axi-centrifugal compressors and mixed-flow compressors where the fluid flow will...

have very high efficiency and flow capacity. Centrifugal compressors are dynamic compressors. These compressors raise the pressure of the refrigerant by imparting...

axial compressors, there may be up to 20 stages between the air inlet and compressor outlet. The very first jet engines used centrifugal compressors and...

while pumps work on a liquid. Compressors may be classified according to the pressure delivered: Low-pressure air compressors, which have a discharge pressure...

and race applications. While the first practical centrifugal compressor was designed in 1899, centrifugal superchargers evolved during World War II with...

especially when creating suction in a pump or compressor. An impeller is a rotating component of a centrifugal pump that accelerates fluid outward from the...

of different types of compressors. Most common today are the hermetic scroll, semi-hermetic screw, or centrifugal compressors. The condensing side of...

patent showed a two-stage axial compressor feeding a single-sided centrifugal compressor. Practical axial compressors were made possible by ideas from...

Modern compressors are carefully designed and controlled to avoid or limit stall within an engine's operating range. There are two types of compressor stall:...

single centrifugal unit. Very small flow compressors often employ two centrifugal compressors, connected in series. Although in isolation centrifugal compressors...

Centrifugal clutch Centrifugal compressor Centrifugal evaporator Centrifugal extractor Centrifugal fan Centrifugal force Centrifugal force (rotating reference...

movers": Turbine / Centrifugal Compressor uses a natural gas-fired turbine to turn a centrifugal compressor. The centrifugal compressor is similar to a large...

machines have stationary vanes (centrifugal compressors may have either vaned or vaneless diffusers). However a compressor operating as part of a gas turbine...

of mechanism being less suitable for smaller compressors than piston compressors. The screw compressor is identical to the screw pump except that the...

is a centrifugal or axial-flow turbine, through which a high-pressure gas is expanded to produce work that is often used to drive a compressor or generator...

associated with centrifugal compressors. The impeller can be machined from solid using NC machines, in much the same way as that of a centrifugal design. Diagonal...
