Replace motor with turbine
Thread Content
If a turbine generates 12,000 kW/h of power, what size motor can it replace when used to drive a compressor? Is there any formula for this calculation?
The power of the turbine is known, and thus it’s possible to determine the capacity of the compressor required; no calculations are needed. However, the rotational speed and other parameters may not need to match. Additionally, the claim that the turbine generates 12,000 kW/h is problematic – 12,000 kW refers to power, which is independent of time
