The performance of an axial-flow compressor operating in a gas-turbine engine with inlet water injection and compressor-outlet saturation was theoretically evaluated. Changes in compressor pressure ratio, compressor efficiency, and compressor work due to water injection were determined for altitudes up to 50,000 feet, Mach numbers up to 2.0, and normal compressor pressure ratios of 4, 8, and 16.
