What is the efficiency range of Aspen compressors?
Thread Content
Which efficiency is applicable in compression, which one should be chosen, and what should be the range for filling in? Cost calculations are currently being carried out, and it has been found to have a significant impact.
I have seen in the literature that values range from 70% to 95%, and various efficiency levels are chosen; is it really only within this range that it’s acceptable? What is the basis for this?
The various formats vary depending on the manufacturer; you can search on Baidu or ask the manufacturer directly. Aspen defaults to 72%, and for cost estimates, it’s advisable to adopt a conservative approach
