Question 163Gas Turbine - Assistant Engineer
70% to passEach stage of an axial-compressor of a gas turbine can compress the atmospheric air a total of how many times?
A1.2 times
B2.2 times
C3.2 times
D4.2 times
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) 1.2 times. In an axial-compressor of a gas turbine, each stage of the compressor can typically compress the atmospheric air by a factor of around 1.2 times. This is because the compression ratio of a single stage in an axial-compressor is generally around 1.2 to 1.4, with higher overall compression ratios achieved by having multiple stages in the compressor. The other options (B, C, and D) are incorrect as they represent higher compression ratios that are not typical for a single stage of an axial-compressor in a gas turbine engine.
