  1. COMPRESSOROPERATION THIS PRESENTATION WILL GIVE A SIMPLE DEMONSTRATION OF HOW JET ENGINE COMPRESSORS WORK

  2. THIS SQUARE REPRESENTS A QUANTITY OF AIR THIS SQUARE REPRESENTS THE SAME QUANTITY OF AIR BUT SQUEEZED INTO A SMALLER VOLUME THE COMPRESSING ACTION CONSISTS OF TAKING A QUANTITY OF AIR AND FORCING IT INTO A SMALLER AND SMALLER SPACE LET’S SEE HOW THIS IS DONE COMPRESSOROPERATION

  3. SQUEEZE PUSH BACK COMPRESSOROPERATION

  4. SQUEEZE PUSH BACK COMPRESSOROPERATION

  5. SQUEEZE PUSH BACK COMPRESSOROPERATION

  6. SQUEEZE PUSH BACK COMPRESSOROPERATION

  7. BIG AT FRONT SMALL AT REAR THIS IS WHY COMPRESSORS ARE SHAPED THE WAY THEY ARE COMPRESSOROPERATION

  8. FRONT REAR COMPRESSORS HAVE A SERIES OF ‘STAGES’ EACH STAGE GIVES A SMALL PRESSURE RISE OVER THE PREVIOUS STAGE COMPRESSOROPERATION

  9. FIRST STAGE SECOND STAGE THIRD STAGE FOURTH STAGE FIFTH STAGE ROTOR STATORS ROTOR STATOR ROTOR STATOR ROTOR STATORS ROTOR ROTOR STATORS STATOR STATORS ROTOR ROTOR STATOR ROTOR ROTOR STATORS STATOR ROTOR BLADE ROTATE LIKE PROPELLOR BLADES STATOR VANES ARE FIXED TO THE ENGINE CASING FRONT REAR FRONT REAR EACH STAGE CONSISTS OF A ‘ROTOR BLADE’ IN FRONT OF A ‘STATOR VANE’ COMPRESSOROPERATION

  10. FRONT REAR COMPRESSOR ROTOR BLADES DO THE PUSHING BACK COMPRESSOROPERATION

  11. FRONT REAR COMPRESSOR STATORS VANES DO THE SQUEEZING I.E. COMPRESSING COMPRESSOROPERATION

  12. WHENEVER AIR IS FORCED INTO A SMALLER SPACE TWO THINGS HAPPEN FIRST:- THE PRESSURE OF THE TRAPPED AIR INCREASES SECOND:- THE TEMPERATURE OF THE TRAPPED AIR ALSO INCREASES YOU CAN PROVE THESE TWO EFFECTS WITH A BICYCLE PUMP! IN A JET ENGINE COMPRESSOR, IT IS A CONSTANT FLOW OF AIR CONSTANTLY BEING COMPRESSED. COMPRESSOROPERATION
