I don't understand the question. It would appear that you wish to compare a centrifugal compressor and an axial flow compressor operating at the same speed and delivering equal flow rates. What is the process fluid? What is the question? Is the "equal air flow" the mass flow rate? At what pressure differential would you like to consider these machines? What is it that you wish to compare? Is it weight, frontal area, mechanical efficiency, overall diameter, length, delivery temperature, input power or what?

What is the different between axial turbocharger and radial turbocharger?

An axial compressor uses many stages of "fans" with stators to compress air in the same direction as its original flow. An example of this is that of *most* turbojet engines' compressors. A radial (or centrifugal) compressor works at right angles to the airflow's original direction. An example of a radial compressor is the compressor on an automotive turbocharger.


The frontal area of a centrifugal compressor as compared to axial flow compressor is larger or smaller?

the frontal area of a centrifugal compresor is more as compared to axial flow compressor for a given air flow. And for this reason axial compressors are being used in aircraft engines.


What is the difference between axial bearing and radial bearing?

In axial bearing the most power force in the same direction as the axis of the shaft In radial bearing no.

Which type of rotary compressor used in gas turbine?

Rotating axial compressor.


Designing an axial fan for aircraft?

what do you mean? axial compressor (or) axial turbine? Their missions are different. Design for axial compressor or turbine, must be consider their performance. The performance is characterized by - pressure ratio, rotational speed and efficiency. The details of how to design axial fan, are very complex.


What is the difference between axial load and radial load?

Axial load (or thrust load) is a force applied parallel to the longitudinal axis, whereas, a radial load is a force applied transverse to this longitudinal axis.


Major difference between thrust radial bearing?

A thrust bearing is designed to handle axial loads (parallel to the shaft), while a radial bearing is designed to handle radial loads (perpendicular to the shaft). These bearings have different internal structures to accommodate their respective load types. Thrust bearings usually have a series of balls or rollers to support axial loads, whereas radial bearings have a raceway to support radial loads.


What is the difference between radial displacement and axial displacement?

Hey, the difference is quite clear! Radial is the distance between the two shaft axis and is quantified by measuring the radial distance between the centerline of one shaft if it were to be extended to overlap the other, but Axial misalignment is the variation in axial distance between the shafts of the driving and driven machinery. Good luck honey...


Can a radial capacitor react different than an axial capacitor when being used as a filter for EMF?

Yes. The inductance of a radial capacitor can be different than an axial capacitor, particularly at RF, so the reaction as a filter for EMF could well be different.


What is difference between radial flow turbine and axial flow turbine?

in a radial flow turbine the steam enters the turbine in the direction of its radius and leaves it in the direction of the axis of the shaft. in a axial flow turbine the steam enters the turbine in the direction of the axis of the shaft and leaves the turbine in the same direction.
