Generally, two kinds of calculation approaches can be
identified: A polynomial and a power approach. A generic polynomial
approach is presented below:
ηise = corFact * sum(a[i]*P[i]^b[i] for i in
1:nT)
A generic power approach is presented below:
ηise = corFact * a * product(P[i]^b[i] for i in
1:nT)
All isentropic efficiency models presented in this library are
based on a literature review. Therefore, the variable
corFact allows a correction of the isentropic
efficiency if the general modelling approach presented in the
litarature differs from ηise = (houtIse
- hinl) / (hout -
hinl).
Calculation procedures presented in the litarture have some
variables in commen and these variables are presented
below:

Actually, three polynomial approaches are implemented in this
package. To add further calculation procedures, just add its name
in AixLib.Fluid.Movers.Compressors.Utilities.Types
and expand the if-structure defined in
AixLib.Fluid.Movers.Compressors.Utilities.IsentropicEfficiency.PolynomialIsentropicEfficiency.
