Capacity Ranges for application of reciprocating, centrifugal, screw and axial compressors

Capacity Ranges for application of reciprocating, centrifugal, screw and axial compressors

Although flow limits for compressors are dictated somewhat by the specific conditions involved and design philosophy of different manufacturers, general range of compressor selection goes as below.

1. Positive displacement machines below 3000 m3/hr
2. Axial compressors above 30,000 m3/hr
3. Flow region between 3000-12,000 m3/hr can be considered over-lapping between positive   displacement and centrifugal compressors.
4. Flow region between 30,000-1,20,000 m3/hr can be considered as overlapped
between centrifugal and axial compressors.
