Air at the rate of 25 kg/min is
compressed in a centrifugal compressor
from 1 bar to 2 bar. The temperature
increases from 15°C to 105°C during
compression. Determine actual and
minimum power required to run the
compressor. The surrounding air
temperature is 15°C. Neglect the changes
in K.E. and P.E.
A 12" x 14" horizontal single-acting reciprocating air compressor is driven by a 50 kW motor that operates at 520 rpm, drawing in air at 14 psia and 88 F, and discharging it at 57.6 psia. The compression and re-expansion process are polytropic with n = 1.33. Mechanical efficiency = 85 %, compression efficiency = 75%
Calculate:
a). the mass of air (lb/min) discharged
b). volumetric efficiency (%)
c). the percent clearance (%)
The compressors of a production facility maintain the compressed-air lines at a (gage) pressure of 700 kPa at 1400-m elevation, where the atmospheric pressure is 85.6 kPa. The average temperature of air is 15°C at the compressor inlet and 25°C in the compressed-air lines. The facility operates 4200 h/yr, and the average price of electricity is $0.10/kWh.
