Centrifugal compressors FAQs

Centrifugal compressors and axial compressors both increase gas pressure but operate differently. Centrifugal compressors accelerate gas outward using an impeller, converting kinetic energy into pressure within a diffuser. In contrast, axial compressors use multiple stages of rotating and stationary blades to gradually compress gas along a straight path. The key distinction lies in how the gas moves: centrifugal compressors rely on radial motion, whereas axial compressors maintain a linear flow.

As well as air, centrifugal compressors can handle a variety of gases depending on their design, material compatibility, and operational requirements. These include natural gas (for transmission and processing), hydrogen (for refining and chemical applications), carbon dioxide (for industrial processes), nitrogen (for purging systems), ammonia (for fertilizer production), and helium (for specialized applications).

Centrifugal compressors transform kinetic energy into pressure energy through a rotating impeller, which consists of a series of vanes or blades attached to a central cylinder. The process begins with gas (or air) entering through an inlet and reaching the centrifugal impeller. The impeller then spins at high speed, using centrifugal force to push the gas outwards. This action increases the velocity of the gas, which then moves into a diffuser where its kinetic energy is converted into pressure. A collector gathers the pressurized gas and releases it through an outlet.
