About this ebook
While turbine transfers energy from fluid to rotor and compressor and a pump transfers energy from rotor to fluid.
Turbo machine is a power or a head generating machine which employs the dynamic action of a rotating element, the rotor; the action of the rotor changes the energy level of the continuously flowing fluid through the machine.
The majority of turbo machines run at comparatively higher speeds without any mechanical problems and high volumetric efficiency.
Turbo machines can be categorised on the basis of the nature of flow path through the passage of the rotor.
The same fundamentals are applicable to all turbo machines, certainly there are significant differences between these machines.
In this book SI unit system is followed.
Our hope is that this book, through its careful explanations of concepts, practical examples and figures bridges the gap between knowledge and proper application of that knowledge.
