Centrifugal Compresor Calculation

This document provides information for calculating the parameters of a centrifugal compressor. It specifies input values such as flow rates, pressures, and temperatures. It then calculates output values like compression ratio, polytropic efficiency, polytropic head, brake horsepower, and discharge temperature and flow rates. It also provides notes on typical specifications for centrifugal compressors and limiting the discharge temperature. Additionally, it includes calculations to determine the iso power of a gas turbine needed to drive the compressor based on given efficiency factors and fuel gas demand.
