Abstract
The compressor is used for processing a CO2 flow; a first compressor stage has a first row of blades with a first number of blades and a second compressor stage, downstream the first compressor stage, has a second row of blades with a second number of blades; the number of blades of the first compressor stage is less than the number of blades of the second compressor stage; there is an annular gap between the first row of blades and the second row of blades; the first compression stage () is designed so to assure that the CO2 flow is in supercritical condition, preferably close to CO2 critical point, at its outlet, and so that the second compressor stage process CO2 in supercritical condition.
