Phenomenon of choking in compressor means
A. No flow of air
B. Fixed mass flow rate regardless of pressure ratio
C. Reducing mass flow rate with increase in pressure ratio
D. Increased inclination of chord with air steam
Answer: Option B
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Choke/Stonewall point Choking is the condition which occurs in the compressor in which it operates at very high mass flow rate and flow through the compressor can't be further increased as mach number at some part of the compressor reach to unityThis Question Belongs to Mechanical Engineering >> Compressors, Gas Turbines And Jet Engines
