A single stage, single acting air compressor with runs at speed 600 rpm. It has a polytropic index of 1,26. The induced volume rate is 7,2 cubic meters per min and the air must be delivered at a pressure of 651 KPa. The free air conditions are 101,3 KPa and 15 degrees celsius. The clearance volume is 6% of the stroke volume and the stroke/bore ratio is 1,6/1. Calculate: 1.the delivery air and delivery air indicated power in KW to two decimal place 2.the volume efficiency in fraction to 3 decimal places

Question

A single stage, single acting air compressor with runs at speed 600 rpm. It has a polytropic index of 1,26. The induced volume rate is 7,2 cubic meters per min and the air must be delivered at a pressure of 651 KPa. The free air conditions are 101,3 KPa and 15 degrees celsius. The clearance volume is 6% of the stroke volume and the stroke/bore ratio is 1,6/1.

Calculate:

1.the delivery air and delivery air indicated power in KW to two decimal place

2.the volume efficiency in fraction to 3 decimal places

3.the stroke volume of the cylinder in cubic meters to 5 decimal places
