Determination of Operating Conditions & the Impact on Centrifugal Air Compressor Selection & Performance
Centrifugal air compressors are well suited for constant pressure applications that require a range of flow rates to be covered in order to meet variable system demand. For the highest system efficiency, end users must be aware that the sizing and performance of a centrifugal air compressor are heavily dependent on the specified site ambient conditions and required operating points.
This white paper will provide compressed air users with insight into how these provided conditions affect the compressor selection process and ultimately the power consumption needed to achieve the required flow and discharge pressure.
