Compressors, Gas Turbines and Jet Engines Which of the following statement is correct as regard to centrifugal compressors? The maximum efficiency is higher than multistage axial flow compressors The static pressure of air in the impeller increases in order to provide centripetal force on the air The flow of air is parallel to the axis of the compressor The impeller rotates at high speeds The maximum efficiency is higher than multistage axial flow compressors The static pressure of air in the impeller increases in order to provide centripetal force on the air The flow of air is parallel to the axis of the compressor The impeller rotates at high speeds ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Compressors, Gas Turbines and Jet Engines Isothermal compression though most efficient, but is not practicable because It does not increase pressure much Compressor has to run at very slow speed to achieve it It is impossible in practice It requires very big cylinder It does not increase pressure much Compressor has to run at very slow speed to achieve it It is impossible in practice It requires very big cylinder ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
