STUDY OF THE VARIATION IN COMPONENT LEVEL CHARACTERISTICS OF A CENTRIFUGAL COMPRESSOR ACROSS THE COMPRESSOR MAP USING CFD AND EXPERIMENTS WITH DETAILED INSTRUMENTATION ON A GAS STAND
A compressor map with variations in component level characteristics is introduced. This novel approach to plot component level characteristics identify and give context to the critical design parameters such as flow angles, pressure coefficients, and loss coefficients across the entire compressor map along with the conventional performance parameters. Compressor design involves a significant amoun
