Gas Turbine Performance
An axial flow compressor has the following advantages. . Frontal area is lower for
a given mass flow and pressure ratio. For example at a pressure ratio of 5 :1, and
the same mass flow, an axial compressor would have a diameter of about half ...

Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics of Turbomachinery
Carchedi and Wood (1982) described the design and development of a single-
shaft 15-stage axial-flow compressor which provided a 12 to 1 pressure ratio at a
mass flow of 27.3kg/s for a 6MW industrial gas turbine. The design was based on
...

Principles of Turbomachinery in Air-Breathing Engines
Today, carefully designed axial-flow compressor stages can very well have
efficiencies in excess of 80%. A good part of this advancement is because of the
standardization of thoughtfully devised compressor-cascade blading rules.

Turbomachinery: Design and Theory
The axial flow compressor, however, can achieve higher pressures at a higher
level of efficiency. There are two important characteristics of the axial flow
compressor — high-pressure ratios at good efficiency and thrust per unit frontal
area.

In general, the centrifugal-flow compressor is considered mechanically more
rugged and more reliable than an axial- flow compressor. The axial- flow
compressor is based on the concept that gas can be compressed more efficiently
if the ...
