Talk:Gas compressor
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The heat of a compressed gas does not come from the inefficiany of the machine compressing the gas. I am not sure why you insist on this error but I am not going to get into an edit war with you Mark.
Can anyone provide any figures for the relative efficiency of the various designs of compressor? This is information I for one would find extremely useful.--81.179.91.108 23:55, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
I second the request of the above person. It would seem to me that a piston design would produce much lower efficiencies than a turbine design, but just how much better or worse? I've dug into my thermo books, and can't seem to find anything on excpected mechanical efficiencies. ~ZirbMonkey - 27 June, 2006
