Abstract
A multi-stage compressor assembly is disclosed. Each of the stages of the compressor assembly has rows of blades arranged to rotate in counter-opposite directions, and this is effective to produce relatively high specific work, and high flow-capacity in a compact footprint at moderate blade tip speeds. In one non-limiting application, the compressor assembly can be utilized to compress a gas having a low-molecular weight and density, such as hydrogen.
