Protection des matériaux Résumé : In most compressors the flow is adiabatic, but in low-speed turbochargers, the compression process has both heat transfer and work input. This paper examines different compressor efficiency definitions for such diabatic flows. Fundamental flaws in the use of the isentropic efficiency for this purpose are identified, whereas the polytropic efficiency can be used with or without heat transfer without ambiguities. The advantage of the polytropic approach for a practical application is demonstrated by analyzing the heat transfer in a turbocharger compressor. A simple model of the heat transfer allows a correction for this effect on the polytropic efficiency at low-speed to be derived. Compressor characteristics that have been corrected for this surprisingly large effect maintain a much higher efficiency down to low-speeds.
