Answer  1.8 and 1.9

Question 1
A single stage reciprocating compressor takes 1m³ of air per minute and 1.013 bar and 15°C and
delivers at 7 bar. Assuming Adiabatic law (n=1.35) and no clearance.
Calculate:
1.1. Mass flow rate (1.226 kg/min)
1.2. Delivery Temperature (475.4 K)
1.3. Indicated power (4.238 kW)
This same compressor is now driven at 300 rpm, has a stroke to bore ratio of (1,5:1), it has a
mechanical efficiency for the compressor of 85% and motor transmission efficiency of 90%.
Calculate:
1.4. Volume per cycle (0.00333 m³/cycle)
1.5. Cylinder bore diameter (141.4 mm)
1.6. Power to the compressor (4.99 kW)
1.7. Motor power needed (5.54 kW)
1.8. The isothermal power (3.265 kW)
1.9. The isothermal efficiency (77%)
