axial-flow compressor
1axial-flow compressor — A compressor used in gas turbine engines in which the flow of air is maintained parallel to the compressor shaft. An axial flow compressor is made up of several stages of alternate rotors and stators. The number of stages of compression… …

3axial-centrifugal compressor — A combination of centrifugal and axial flow compressors in a gas turbine engine. The axial flow compressor is ahead and serves as a low pressure compressor, while the centrifugal flow compressor is in the rear and functions as a high pressure… …
4Diagonal or mixed-flow compressor — A diagonal or mixed flow compressor is effectively a cross between a centrifugal and axial flow compressor. The American term diagonal flow is very apt, because these compressors combine both axial and radial velocity components. The prime… …
5Mixed flow compressor — For more details on this topic, see Centrifugal compressor. A mixed flow compressor combines the axial and radial components to produce a diagonal flow unit. The exit mean radius is greater than at the inlet, but the flow tends to exit in an… …
6diagonal-flow compressor — A compressor in which the airflow is diagonal to the plane of rotation, centrifugal with an axial component …
7compressor stage — i. A pair of stator and rotor rings form one stage of an axial flow compressor. The rotating airfoils increase air velocity, which then changes into pressure in the numerous diverging ducts formed by the stator vanes. ii. Each section of a… …

9compressor disc — The inner section of compressor wheel that makes up a stage of compression in an axial flow compressor. The disc is mounted on compressor shaft. The rotor blades are mounted on the disc periphery. Each compressor stage has its own disc …
10compressor casing — The outer casing surrounding a compressor rotor. In an engine with an axial flow compressor, the stator vanes are mounted in the compressor casing …
