Multi Stage Centrifugal Air Compressor Demonstration Unit (Computer Interface). This is a bench top unit for studying the multi stage centrifugal air compressor characteristics with data analysis by computer.

The unit consists of a small multi stage air compressor with a motor on a steel base, inlet and outlet ducts, sensors and software.

Speed control is by a variac.

Instruction manual is also included.

TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS

Flow rate vs pressure.
Compressor input, output, and overall efficiency.
Effect of speed on compressor performance.
