The “diameter of the compressor” in aircraft design and engineering refers to the width or cross-sectional size of the compressor, typically measured from one side to the other. The compressor is a critical component in aircraft engines, responsible for compressing incoming air before it enters the combustion chamber for combustion.
Formula for Diameter of Compressor (D):The formula to calculate the diameter of a compressor is straightforward:
- Diameter (D) is typically measured in meters (m).
