Similarity numbers of the processes of compression of 
real gases in the stages of centrifugal compressor machines are given. 
A method for setting up promptly the thermal and calorific equations 
of state of the mixtures of real gases for the prescribed region of 
operation of a compressor machine is proposed. A procedure for processing 
of experimental data obtained in gasdynamic tests with mixtures of 
real gases and for reduction of the results obtained to the nominal 
conditions of operation of the flow part is presented.
