  2. Compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor

    By defining the compression cycle as isentropic, an ideal efficiency for the process can be attained, and the ideal compressor performance can be compared to the actual performance of the machine. Isotropic Compression as used in ASME PTC 10 Code refers to a reversible, adiabatic compression process [28] Isentropic efficiency of Compressors:

  3. Linear compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_compressor

    The suspension spring can be flexure type or coil type. An oil-free valved linear compressor enables the design of compact heat exchangers. [1] Linear compressors work similarly to a solenoid: by using a spring-loaded piston with an electromagnet connected to AC through a diode. The spring-loaded piston is the only moving part, and it is placed ...

  4. Compressive strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressive_strength

    The compressive strength of the material corresponds to the stress at the red point shown on the curve. In a compression test, there is a linear region where the material follows Hooke's law. Hence, for this region, =, where, this time, E refers to the Young's modulus for compression. In this region, the material deforms elastically and returns ...

  5. Gain compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gain_compression

    Gain compression is the difference between the ideal linear power transfer curve and the real circuit's power transfer curve. An important gain compression parameter is the OP1dB , which is the power input that results in a 1 dB compression of the output power (OP), corresponding to a gain ratio of 10 - 1 ⁄ 10 = 79.4%.

  6. Rotary-screw compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary-screw_compressor

    Principal view of the pumping action of a twin-screw pump with a six-lobe female screw and a five-lobe male screw. A compressor (as opposed to a pump) would be shaped the same way, except that the shape of the lobes would change along the length of the screw, so that the volume of the trapped pockets would get squeezed smaller as they get closer to the exhaust port.

  7. Compressor characteristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_characteristic

    Compressor characteristic is a mathematical curve that shows the behaviour of a fluid going through a dynamic compressor.It shows changes in fluid pressure, temperature, entropy, flow rate etc.) with the compressor operating at different speeds.

  8. Compression point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_point

    For example, the 1-dB compression point (sometimes notated as P1dB [1] [2]) is the output power of the amplifier (for the signal of interest) at which it differs from an ideal linear amplifier by more than 1 dB. So a larger 1-dB compression point means that the amplifier can produce larger outputs (for the same amount of distortion). [3]

  9. Hydrogen compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_compressor

    Hydrogen compressors are closely related to hydrogen pumps and gas compressors: both increase the pressure on a fluid and both can transport the fluid through a pipe.As gases are compressible, the compressor also reduces the volume of hydrogen gas, whereas the main result of a pump raising the pressure of a liquid is to allow the liquid hydrogen to be transported elsewhere.
