Types of Compressor Used Gas Turbine

Types of Compressor Used Gas Turbine Points : Types of Compressor Used Gas Turbine power Plant The various types of compressors used on gas turbine.
1. Axial Compressor:
2. Centrifugal Compressor 1. Centrifugal Compressor It consist of stationary casing and rotating impeller. Impeller is provided with places. When the impeller rotates the air enters axially’ arid leaves readily. When he impeller rotates the pressure in the region R falls and, therefore the air enters through the eye. The air then flows readily outwards through the impeller blades. After that the air flows through the converged passages of diffuser blades and finally the sir flows to compressor outlet.

2. Axial Compressor The compressor is quite commonly used in gas turbines. fl consists of stator which encloses rotor (R) both stator and rotor are fitted with rings of blades (RB-Rotor Blades, SB-Stator Blades) In this compressor the air flows in an axial direction from inlet to outlet Air centering at one end as shown flows through the alternatively arranges rings and gets compressed successively.
