A method and a device for the isothermal compression of a compressible medium preferably air, for the operation of a turbomachine which is intended to generate energy and in which a pressurized liquid, preferably water, is atomized by means of an atomization device and, together with the air, forms a liquid-air mixture which, in order to be compressed, is introduced into a nozzle arrangement in which most of the kinetic energy of the liquid-air mixture is converted into compression energy as a result of an increase in the pressure of the air. The liquid-air mixture is introduced into the nozzle arrangement at a velocity which is greater than the speed of sound, and the atomization is carried out in such a manner that liquid droplets are formed within the liquid-air mixture, the diameters of which droplets are approximately 200 mum or less.
