Performance of J33-A-27 Turbojet-Engine Compressor: Over - All Performance Characteristics of Modified Compressor at Equivalent Impeller Speeds from 6100 to 13,250 RPM - II

A modified J33-A-27 compressor was operated over a range of equivalent impeller speeds from 6100 to 13,250 rpm in order to obtain the over-all compressor performance. At the equivalent design speed of 11,800 rpm, the maximum efficiency of 0.764 and peak pressure ratio of 4.56 occurred at an equivalent weight flow of 104.07 pounds per second. At the highest equivalent speed (13,250 rpm) a maximum efficiency of 0.711, a maximum equivalent weight flow of 123.00 pounds per second, and a peak pressure ratio of 5.76 were obtained.
