I am studying the rotary compressor and I have understood that the stagnation pressure and stagnation temperature both increase in the rotor stage (as energy is being added). I also read that in the stator stage the stagnation temperature remains a constant but there is loss of stagnation pressure. If there is a loss in stagnation pressure in the stator, shouldn't the stagnation temperature increase (I am guessing here that the stagnation pressure loss is converted into heat)?
