better lubrication is possible advantages of multistage

more loss of air due to leakage past the cylinder

mechanical balance is better

air can be cooled perfectly in between

remain unaffected

may increase/decrease depending on compressor clearance

velocity factor

velocity coefficient

blade effectiveness

inlet losses

impeller channel losses

diffuser losses
