Question 1 of 27070

A centrifugal compressor assembly consists of which of the following?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Centrifugal compressor basic parts and their purposes • Difference between an impeller and a diffuser in fluid machinery • Which elements in a centrifugal machine are typically rotating vs stationary

💭 Think About

• Think about what part of the compressor actually imparts energy and velocity to the fluid. Is that usually rotating or stationary? • Consider which part of the compressor is responsible for converting high-velocity flow into higher pressure. Is that part usually rotating or fixed in place? • Look at each choice and ask: does this combination (rotating vs stationary) match how centrifugal pumps and compressors are normally built?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which component, impeller or diffuser, is normally connected to the shaft and driven by the prime mover. • Confirm which component is normally made of stationary vanes that slow down the flow and increase pressure. • Eliminate any options that describe moving parts that are not typical for a centrifugal compressor (for example, pistons and liners).
