nute. The various pressure ratios were obtained by varying the inlet pressure, the dis- charge pressure being held nearly constant. The actual PUns were made at constant weights of air handled, the desired pressure ratios being obtained by varying the speed of rotation and the opening of I he inlet… … Drive shaft R.P.M.
