2. Compressor map - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_map

   A compressor map is a chart which shows the performance of a turbomachinery compressor. This type of compressor is used in gas turbine engines, for supercharging reciprocating engines and for industrial processes, where it is known as a dynamic compressor. A map is created from compressor rig test results or predicted by a special computer program.

3. Dynamic range compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_range_compression

   One compressor generally stabilizes the dynamic range while the other aggressively compresses stronger peaks. This is the normal internal signal routing in common combination devices marketed as compressor-limiters, where an RMS compressor (for general gain control) is followed by a fast peak-sensing limiter (for overload protection). Done ...

4. 1176 Peak Limiter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1176_Peak_Limiter

   Inputs. 1. Outputs. 1. The 1176 Peak Limiter is a dynamic range compressor designed by the American engineer Bill Putnam and introduced by UREI in 1967. Derived from the 175 and 176 tube compressors, it marked the transition from vacuum tubes to solid-state technology. [1]

5. Linear compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_compressor

   A linear compressor is a gas compressor where the piston moves along a linear track to minimize friction and reduce energy loss during conversion of motion. This technology has been successfully used in cryogenic applications which must be oil-less. The suspension spring can be flexure type or coil type. An oil-free valved linear compressor ...

6. Precipitate-free zone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precipitate-free_zone

   In materials science, a precipitate-free zone ( PFZ) refers to microscopic localized regions around grain boundaries that are free of precipitates (solid impurities forced outwards from the grain during crystallization ). It is a common phenomenon that arises in polycrystalline materials ( crystalline materials with stochastically -oriented ...

7. Surge in compressors - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surge_in_compressors

   Compressor surge is a form of aerodynamic instability in axial compressors or centrifugal compressors. The term describes violent air flow oscillating in the axial direction of a compressor, which indicates the axial component of fluid velocity varies periodically and may even become negative. In early literature, the phenomenon of compressor ...
