UNIT- I INTRODUCTION

Basics of isentropic flow–static and stagnation properties–diffuser and nozzle configurations– area ratio – mass flow rate – critical properties. Energy transfer between fluid and rotor velocity triangles for a generalized turbo machines – velocity diagrams. Euler’s equation for turbo machines and its different forms. Degree of reaction in turbo-machines–various efficiencies – isentropic, mechanical, thermal, overall and polytropic.

UNIT- II CENTRIFUGAL AND AXIAL FLOW COMPRESSORS

Centrifugal compressor – configuration and working – slip factor – work input factor – ideal and actual work – pressure coefficient – pressure ratio. Axial flow compressor – geometry and working–velocity diagrams–ideal and actual work–stage pressure ratio–free vortex theory– performance curves and losses.
