How axial compressor work?

An axial compressor operates by using a series of rotating and stationary blades arranged in a cylindrical configuration. As air enters the compressor, the rotating blades impart kinetic energy to the air, increasing its velocity. This high-speed air then passes through the stationary blades, which convert the kinetic energy into increased pressure by reducing the velocity. The process continues through multiple stages, resulting in significantly compressed air ready for combustion or other applications.
