the centrifugal compressor of a gas turbine receives air at 1 bar and 300k. At the discharge of the compressor, the pressure is 4 bar, temperature is 480k and velocity is 100m/s. The mass rate of flow into the compressor is 15kg/s. Determine the power required to drive the compressor?
Synchronous Generator
In comparison to an asynchronous generator, it is a machine where the rotor speed is equal to the rotating magnetic field produced by the stator, i.e., mechanical speed is equal to the electrical speed, thus called synchronous, and not asynchronous.
Salient Pole Rotor
Salient pole rotor includes a large number of exposed poles mounted on a magnetic wheel. The construction of a bright pole is as shown in the image on the left. The proposed poles are made of metal laminations. The rotor winding is provided on these poles and is supported by pole shoes.
