Process Centrifugal Compressors: Basics, Function, Operation, Design, Application

Throughout the last decades, centrifugal compressor research and development have been revolutionized. Computational fluid dynamics have provided a better understanding of the flow and physical phenomena, and the design of new cen­ trifugal compressor components has been transformed from an "art" into a "sci­ ence". New materials and manufacturing techniques now create new geometries that could only be dreamed of in the past, and new challenging applications have pushed the limits beyond wh...
