Statement I: A few turbine stages can drive a compressor of a dozen or more.

Statement II: Turbine flow accelerates while compressor flow diffuses.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer.

  • A.Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
  • B.Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
  • C.Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
  • D.Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect

Answer: C

Both statements are true and the second is the reason. An accelerating flow keeps its boundary layer attached through turning that would separate a diffusing one immediately, so each turbine stage does several times the work of a compressor stage.
