Centrifugal Compressor Demonstration Unit
It is used for high-pressure deliveries of gas flows or suction duties. It is a small-scale multi-stage centrifugal compressor demonstration unit. It can measure the air flow rate.
Specification:
- A small-scale multi-stage centrifugal compressor demonstration unit, comprising of an inlet duct, the compressor, an outlet duct and an adjustable aperture, all mounted on a stainless steel base.
- Seven stages in the compressor.
- Equipped with electronic measurement sensors for head pressure, flow-rate (via orifice plate) and air temperature.
- Capable of being linked to a PC (not supplied) via a dedicated interface console (an essential accessory).
- Supplied with software providing full instructions for setting up, operating, calibrating and performing the teaching exercises. Facilities for logging, processing and displaying data graphically.
- Full theoretical back-up together with a student questions and answers session.
Instruction Capabilities:
- Measurement of constant-speed machine performance in terms of static and total pressures, rotor speed and motor shaft power, as a function of inlet flow
- Measurement of compressor efficiency and estimation of impeller power efficiency
- Measurement of performance at constant speeds
- Introduction to similarity laws for scale-up
- Comparison of student calculations with computer results
Specification:
- Max Flow Rate: 20 l/s typical
- Max Head: 6.0KPa
- Max fan speed 3000rpm
- Motor Power rating 250W
