AIRCompressor Turbo Calculator

Christian Peter Kaiser

About this app

AIRCompressor calculates the compression of dry standard air in turbo compressors: power, mass flow or isentropic efficiency, live with sliders. Built for engineering estimates, teaching and quick “what if” checks on the go.

WHO IT’S FOR
• Engineers in compressor, compressed-air and plant engineering
• Students and lecturers in thermodynamics and turbomachinery

HOW IT WORKS
• Set inlet pressure, inlet temperature and discharge pressure with sliders
• Use the calculate icon to choose what to solve for: power, mass flow or isentropic efficiency
• The other two operating quantities stay inputs – results update live as you drag
• See discharge temperature, volumetric flows and enthalpy difference at a glance

FEATURES
• Slider input – fast, interactive exploration
• Clear highlight of the calculated quantity
• Light and dark themes (system / light / dark)
• Landscape layout with inlet and discharge side by side
• English and German interface
• In-app help and legal notice
• No ads, no account

UNITS
• Pressure: bar absolute
• Temperature: °C
• Mass flow: kg/s
• Power: kW (shaft power consumed)
• Efficiency: % (isentropic, η = Δh_s / Δh)
• Volume flow: m³/s
• Enthalpy difference: kJ/kg

MORE WITH AIRCOMPRESSOR PRO
The paid app AIRCompressor Pro uses the same thermodynamics and adds:
• precise numeric entry instead of sliders only
• full state properties: enthalpy, entropy and specific volume at inlet and discharge
• copy results to the clipboard
• compact keypad in landscape

ACCURACY
Developed by a project engineer with more than 15 years of experience in turbomachinery and thermodynamic cycles. Provided in good faith but without warranty of correctness or completeness. Always verify critical calculations with your own methods and professional judgment.
