4.1 INTRODUCTION
Compressors uses mechanical work to take an amount of fluid and deliver it at a required pressure
An efficient compressor increases pressure with minimum work The amount of fluid is limited by the volume of the compressor
cylinder which is fixed The reciprocating compressor operates in a cyclic manner The properties of the working fluid at inlet and outlet are average
values

Schematic Layout
A compressor consist of: crank case encloses the
compression volume crank shaft rotates the crank piston moves through the cylinder
during each cycle crank and connecting rod connects
the crank with the piston spring loaded induction and delivery
valves cylinder where piston travels
The crank shaft is usually driven by an electric motor

4.4 CONDITIONS FOR MINIMUM WORK
We know that the work done is equal to the area under the graph The smaller the area the lesser the work and the better the
compressor
For reciprocating compressors, the pressure ratio is fixed, so the
height of p-v diagram is fixed The volume of cylinder is also fixed so the line d-a is fixed Therefore the area representing work depends the index n. For n = 1,
pV = constant (Isothermal) For n = ,
pV = constant (isentropic) So, the process can be polytropic, isothermal or isentropic

pV =constant (isothermal)

From here it can be seen that the isothermal process is the best because it requires minimum work
So it is best that the gas temperature is constant throughout the compression cycle

4.5 MECHANICAL EFFICIENCY, ηm
Because there are moving mechanical parts in the compressor, it is likely that losses will occur due to friction
Therefore power required to drive the compressor is actually more higher than the indicated power
So there is need to measure the mechanical efficiency of the cycle Mechanical efficiency of the compressor is given by:
Power system[Power required]

4.7 CLEARANCE VOLUME (VC)
In actual compressors, piston does not reach the top of wall of the cylinder.
Instead it reaches maximum stroke at a certain distance from the wall. The remaining volume of the cylinder where piston does not travel
through is call the clearance volume VC. The volume where the piston does travel through is called the swept
volume, VS. Purpose – to give freedom for working parts and space for valve
operations
19
Process After delivery at (c) (volume is
VC, pressure is p2 and temperature is T2). So, there are some gas left in the cylinder
When piston moves downward, this gas expands according to PVn = C until p1 at (d).
Then induction begins (d – a) Then gas is compressed
according to PVn = C Finally there is the delivery (b –

Double-acting Compressors
A single-acting compressor completes one compression cycle with one revolution of the crank
A double-acting compressor completes two compression cycles with one revolution of the crank
So the mass induce per revolution is twice than a single acting where

EXAMPLE 4.3 A single stage, double-acting compressor is required to deliver 8m3/min of

4.5 VOLUMETRIC EFFICIENCY, ηv
Volumetric efficiency is another definition to measure the performance of a compressor.
The are two ways how to define volumetric efficiency: 1st definition:
The ratio of the actual induced mass (mactual) in the cylinder with ideal induced mass at free air condition (mideal). Free air condition is basically the ambient condition

4.6 MULTI-STAGING COMPRESSOR• When delivery pressure is increased to a
higher value, several weaknesses were found:
1. Induce volume will become lesser
2. Increase in delivery temperature
3. Decrease of volumetric efficiency (FAD becomes lesser were else no change in Vs)

It consist of more than one compressor where the air passes through an intercooler before entering the next compressor.
The size of the next compressor is smaller to compromise Vs. In the intercooler, heat is transferred to the surrounding and temperature will
decreased. It will be brought back to its inlet temperature (before induction process). It is assumed that all compressors will have the same polytropic index.

Advantages:
a. Slight increase in temperature
b. Increase in volumetric efficiency
c. Saving in work ( shaded area)
***NOTES:
a. Since no mass is allow to escape during its travel, mLP = mHP
b. If pressure ratio and the ratio of Vc/Vs is the same, volumetric efficiency for both compressor is the same.

EXAMPLE 4.5 In a single acting, two-stage reciprocating air compressor, 4.5 kg/min of air
is compressed from 1.013 bar and 15oC surrounding conditions through a pressure ratio of 9 to 1. Both stages have the same pressure ratio, and the law of compression and expansion in both stages is PV1.3=C. The clearence volume of both stages are 5% of their respective swept volumes and it runs at 300 rpm. If intercooling is complete, calculate:
i. Indicated power
ii. Volumetric efficiency
iii. Cylinder swept volumes required.
