Liquids and gases cannot bear steady uniaxial or biaxial compression, they will deform promptly and permanently and will not offer any permanent reaction force. However they can bear isotropic compression, and may be compressed in other ways momentarily, for instance in a sound wave. Tightening a corset applies biaxial compression to the waist.
The compressed fluid region is located to the left of the blue line (the liquid-vapor phase boundary). The international pictogram for compressed gases. A compressed fluid (also called a compressed or unsaturated liquid, [1] subcooled fluid or liquid) is a fluid under mechanical or thermodynamic conditions that force it to be a liquid. [2]

Surging is gas flow reversal, meaning that the gas goes from the discharge to the suction side, which can cause serious damage, specially in the compressor bearings and its drive shaft. It is caused by a pressure on the discharge side that is higher than the output pressure of the compressor.
Air is liquefied by the Linde process, in which air is alternately compressed, cooled, and expanded, each expansion results in a considerable reduction in temperature. With the lower temperature the molecules move more slowly and occupy less space, so the air changes phase to become liquid.

Meaning, Travis and the Chiefs are presumably in New Orleans practicing for the game and are on a pretty strict schedule that doesn’t involve jetting off to Los Angeles for music’s biggest ...
An early major application of compressed air was in the drilling of the Mont Cenis Tunnel in Italy and France in 1861, where a 600 kPa (87 psi) compressed air plant provided power to pneumatic drills, increasing productivity greatly over previous manual drilling methods. Compressed-air drills were applied at mines in the United States in the 1870s.
