2. Compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor

   A compressor is a mechanical device that increases the pressure of a gas by reducing its volume. An air compressor is a specific type of gas compressor.

3. Air compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_compressor

   Air compressor supplies air into a nail gun.. An air compressor is a machine that takes ambient air from the surroundings and discharges it at a higher pressure. It is an application of a gas compressor and a pneumatic device that converts mechanical power (from an electric motor, diesel or gasoline engine, etc.) into potential energy stored in compressed air, which has many uses.

4. Compressor stall - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_stall

   Axi-symmetric stall, more commonly known as compressor surge; or pressure surge, is a complete breakdown in compression resulting in a reversal of flow and the violent expulsion of previously compressed air out through the engine intake, due to the compressor's inability to continue working against the already-compressed air behind it.

5. Axial compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_compressor

   An animated simulation of an axial compressor. The static blades are the stators.. An axial compressor is a gas compressor that can continuously pressurize gases.It is a rotating, airfoil-based compressor in which the gas or working fluid principally flows parallel to the axis of rotation, or axially.

6. Inverter compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverter_compressor

   The compressor is specifically designed to run at different motor speeds to modulate cooling output. Variable speed operation requires an appropriate compressor for full speed operation and a special compressor lubrication system. Proper oil management is a critical requirement to ensure compressor lifetime.

7. Rotary-screw compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary-screw_compressor

   The screw compressor was first patented in 1878 by Heinrich Krigar in Germany, however the patent expired without a working machine being built. [4] [5] The modern helical lobe screw compressor was developed in Sweden by Alf Lysholm who was the chief engineer at Ljungstroms Angturbin.
