This report describes a compressor which was designed to give a mean stage temperature rise of 30 deg C. It has six stages so that the overall pressure ratio at the design point is 4.5 : 1. Full details of the factors which ...

In a preliminary report a description has been given of some tests on the effect of Reynolds number on the static-pressure rise through a single-stage axial-flow compressor. The work has since been extended and the full ...
