Abstract

Part 1 - General Requirements Defines minimum requirements and gives recommendations for axial compressors, singleshaft and integrally geared process centrifugal compressors, and expander-compressors for special purpose applications that handle gas or process air in the petroleum, chemical, and gas industries. Part 2 - Nonintegrally Geared Centrifugal and Axial Compressors Describes minimum requirements and gives recommendations for axial compressors, single-shaft and integrally geared process centrifugal compressors, and expander-compressors for special purpose applications that handle gas or process air in the petroleum, chemical, and gas industries. Part 3 - Integrally Geared Centrifugal Compressors Gives minimum requirements and gives recommendations for axial compressors, singleshaft and integrally geared process centrifugal compressors, and expander-compressors for special purpose applications that handle gas or process air in the petroleum, chemical, and gas industries. Part 4 - Expander-compressors Explains minimum requirements and gives recommendations for axial compressors, singleshaft and integrally geared process centrifugal compressors, and expander-compressors for special purpose applications that handle gas or process air in the petroleum, chemical, and gas industries.
