Abstract
A system and method for calculating the performance of a compressor wherein the user can select a compressor from a database or retrieve a list of compressors to select from based on application conditions. The system calculates the capacity, power, current, mass flow, EER and isentropic efficiency for each compressor selected. The system has a verification process to assure that the compressor and conditions selected are within a designated operating range, and calculates the performance characteristics of the selected compressor.
