What is difference between vacuum pump and centrifugal pump?
A compressor is a piece of equipment that compresses gas either to transfer to a specific location or for a certain process requirement. Compressor are manufactured depending on application and can be class into two basic types; positive-displacement and centrifugal. Integrally geared centrifugal compressors can operate at many times higher speeds than reciprocating compressors. The higher speeds ultimately result in smaller package sizes, requiring a smaller footprint as compared to a reciprocating compressor. The operating speed of a reciprocating compressor is very slow due to mechanical and dynamic limitations. Furthermore, the lower speed of reciprocating compressor lends itself to larger compressor size, heavier weight, and larger plot plan size. Whereas the centrifugal compressor with higher operating speeds results in smaller overall compressor package sizes such as smaller gearing, bearings, seals, lubrication system, and foundation. Smaller packages ultimately lend themselves to saving in lower overall installations as well as lower capital and spare parts costs. Higher reliability is fully attainable with centrifugal compressors. The rotating aerodynamic components (impellers) have no physical contact with the stationary parts (inlet shroud). On the contrary, the reciprocating compressor moving components such as the piston and valves are physically in contact with the cylinder and other stationary components during operation. The physical contact causes wear and tear of both moving and stationary components, which requires constant maintenance. However, a centrifugal compressor operates for many years with continuous service without overhaul maintenance, resulting in less power plant down time. This eliminates loss of product, provides more profit, lowers risk, and results in lower maintenance cost. Overhaul periods are more predictable by analyzing characteristic efficiency and vibration trends. A typical centrifugal compressor overhaul inspection period is more than 7 years as compared to less than 2 years for most reciprocating compressors. In addition to the economical advantages of implementing a centrifugal compressor over a reciprocating compressor, many technical advantages are also evident. The centrifugal compressor discharge pressure can be regulated to less than 0.5% per second. The well-regulated compressor discharge pressure provides very steady supply of fuel to the gas turbine. This is an advantage since it does not cause additional burden to the turbine controls. On the other hand, a reciprocating compressor at best can provide 2% or more of pulsating pressure. Unsteady supply of fuel may cause hardship on the turbine control system. A reciprocating compressor would require an impractically over-sized pulsation bottle to minimize supply pressure pulsation to the level as steady as a centrifugal compressor. Considering there is no physical contact between the centrifugal compressor aerodynamic components, the need for lubrication within the compression components is not required; thus it will not add oil or other contaminants to the process gas. However, a reciprocating compressor requires oil lubricant for the piston rings. This oil eventually ends up in the process gas or it has to be separated to protect the gas turbine. Due to physical contact between the piston rings and the cylinder, the wear of the rings and packing causes particle contamination of the fuel gas. Hence, this contamination could cause premature wear on the turbine blades and other turbine fuel gas passages
What is the different between centrifugal and positive displacement compressor?
compressor work on two principles 1)reduce volume of a constant amount of gas 2)adding more gas in a constant amount of volume positive displacement compressor works on first principle it reduces the volume of gas by applying force on it but gas amount is constant in every stroke or rotation thus increasing the pressure. centrifugal compressor work on second principle it adds more amount of gas in a given constant volume thus the pressure increase.
What is the use of a turbine in refrigeration?
It is used as a compressor. It has the same advantages over a piston compressor as a gas turbine engine has over a piston engine. i.e. no valves, much lower part count and much greater efficiency.
How inefficiencies of compressor and turbine affect back work ratio and efficiency of gas turbine?
Inefficiencies in the compressor of a gas turbine cycle increase the back-work ratio and decrease the thermal efficiency of the gas turbine cycle, since they increase the compressor work.
What is gas turbine compressor pulsation?
GT compressor pulsation ?
What is the function of Bull gear in centrifugal compressor?
The bull gear in a centrifugal compressor is responsible for driving the impeller. It transfers rotational energy from the driver (such as an electric motor or a gas turbine) to the impeller, which then compresses the gas or air. The size and design of the bull gear impact the efficiency and performance of the compressor.

What is intermediate pressure turbine?
Some varieties of gas turbine engines (e.g. RR Trent and RB211) have 3 concentric rotating shafts. Each shaft connects a compressor with a turbine. The low pressure compressor, or fan, is driven by the low pressure turbine. The high pressure compressor is driven by the high pressure turbine. Between the low and high pressure compressors there is an intermediate pressure compressor and, guess what... it's driven by the intermediate pressure turbine.
