Determines the distribution of pressure drop/rise between the stator and rotor.
Selecting the right machine requires matching the system requirements (system curve) to the machine's capabilities (performance curve).
The foundational mathematical framework governing all turbomachines is the Euler Turbomachine Equation. Derived from the principles of conservation of angular momentum, this equation relates the torque exerted on the fluid to the change in the fluid’s tangential velocity. The power ( Derived from the principles of conservation of angular
