The compressor efficiency is the
A. Isothermal H.P/indicated H.R
B. Isothermal H.P./shaft H.R
C. Total output/air input
D. Compression work/motor input
Answer: Option A
Solution(By Examveda Team)
The compressor efficiency is the Isothermal H.P/indicated H.R The mechanical efficiency varies with compressor size and type, but 95% is a useful planning number. When calculating the compressor head and discharge temperature the efficiency used will be isentropic or polytropicRelated Questions on Compressors, Gas Turbines and Jet Engines
