Centrifugal Compressor Overhaul
There are many different types of compressors. The first and most fundamental classification of a compressor is whether it is a positive displacement or dynamic compressor. Centrifugal compressors are dynamic compressors that increase the pressure of a gas by first increasing its velocity, or kinetic energy. This module will review the principles of operation of centrifugal compressors and then examine the steps involved in overhauling a particular multistage integrally geared centrifugal compressor.
