Why inter-coolers are required for multi-stage reciprocating compressors?

Why inter-coolers are required for multi-stage reciprocating compressors?  
Answer : The intercoolers reduce the temperature of air/gas discharged between stages. Ideally, the intake temperature at each stage should be the same as that at the first stage (referred to a perfect cooling), so that the volume of air to be compressed does not increase and hence reduced power consumption....

What is the effect of increase in altitude on the performance of single stage reciprocating compressors?

What is the effect of increase in altitude on the performance of single stage reciprocating compressors? 
Answer : With the increase in altitude, there will be reduction in air pressure, which results in increase in compression ratio, leading to higher discharge temperature and reduced efficiency. ...

What are the limitations of a centrifugal compressor operation?

What are the limitations of a centrifugal compressor operation? 
Answer : The major limitation of a centrifugal compressor is that is operates at peak efficiency at design point only and any deviation from the operating point is detrimental to its performance. When selecting ... at high pressure, with the consequent reduction in flow, the surge point is not reached....
