Hello, what’s the max compression ratio allowed for centrifugal compressors ? Is a pressure ratio of 6 allowed ? Also what is the discharge temperature limit ?

Hi,

Consider this chart and other docs to support your work.

Compression ratio depends on molecular weight of gas being compressed.

More information better answer.
